Silica Nanoparticles

Silica nanoparticles are known for their high surface area and chemical stability. They can encapsulate molecules or be functionalized by introducing chemical groups onto their surface.

  • Advantages: High loading capacity due to their porous structure, along with resistance to temperature and pH variations.
  • Surface Modification: Can be integrated into fluorescent, probe, or sensor-based applications.
  • Applications: Molecular immobilization, sensor development, and analytical and biological applications.
