20nm Standard Gold Nanoparticles

For assay teams comparing nanoparticle options for localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), nanoparticle conjugation, lateral flow assay development, and immunoassay development, the 20 nm gold nanoparticles format keeps selection focused on particle material, size, shape and chemistry.

Gold nanoparticles are widely used as plasmonic labels and conjugation scaffolds because their optical response, surface chemistry and particle size can be matched to assay, imaging or sensor formats. The listed absorption maximum of 524 nm can help compare this size with related gold nanoparticle options.

The citrate-stabilized colloidal format is commonly used for passive adsorption of proteins and other ligands to the nanoparticle surface. It is well aligned with assay development, lateral flow, immunoassay and electron microscopy workflows when those applications are listed.

The supplied description emphasizes controlled size distribution and defined particle morphology. Those details matter when comparing related nanoparticle products for optical response, conjugation behavior or assay consistency.

The application profile includes localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), nanoparticle conjugation, lateral flow assay development, immunoassay development, biosensing, and electron microscopy. These terms reflect the supported scientific workflows for this listing and help scientists compare related products by use case, not by material alone.

This size range is often selected as a balance between particle number, optical response and biomolecular surface area.

For gold nanoparticle workflows, compare standard, stabilized, reactant-free, endotoxin-free and functionalized versions according to the application. The same size can behave differently depending on the surface chemistry and formulation.

For procurement and product selection, compare it with related nanoparticles by particle size, surface chemistry, formulation and listed application rather than treating all nanoparticles as interchangeable.
