Functionalized Gold Nanoparticles for Applications in Bionanotechnology (2005, background): “Examples of such materials include large organic molecules (Philp and Stoddart 1996), fullerenes (Dresselhaus et al. 1995), carbon nanotubes (Dresselhaus et al. 1995), and inorganic nanoparticles of insulators (Li et al. 1999), metals (Schmid and Chi 1998), and semiconductors (Whaley et al. 2000).”
Biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles: A review (2015, positive): “Peptides could lead to the controlled placement and assembly of molecules thereby broadening the scope of ’bottom-up’ approach for the synthesis of NPs (Whaley et al., 2000).”
DNA-assisted dispersion and separation of carbon nanotubes (2003, neutral): “Less used are the potential inorganic substrate-binding properties of DNA, in contrast to recently demonstrated efficacy of oligopeptides for this purpos”
