We report a methodology for the fabrication of neutralized chitosan-based nanofiber matrices decorated with bare Au nanoparticles, which demonstrate stable characteristics even after prolonged contact with a biological environment. The methodology consists of electrospinning of a mixture of bare (ligand-free) laser-synthesized Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) and solutions of chitosan/polyethylene oxide (ratio 1/3) containing chitosan of a relatively high molecular weight (200 kDa) and concentration of 3% (w/v). Our studies reveal a continuous morphology of hybrid nanofibers with the mean fiber diameter of 189 nm ± 86 nm, which demonstrate a high thermal stability. Finally, we describe a protocol for the neutralization of nanofibers, which enabled us to achieve their structural stability in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for more than six months, as confirmed by microscopy and FTIR measurements. The formed hybrid nanofibers exhibit unique physicochemical properties essential for the development of future tissue engineering platforms.

Five kinds of terbium complexes have been synthesized respectively with benzoic acid, 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridine as ligands. The core-shell Ag@SiO2nanocomposites was prepared. The result of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) shows the diameter of the nanosilver is about 50 nm and the thickness of the silica shell is 10, 25 and 80 nm. Combine the nanoparticles composite with terbium complexes, we explore the changes of excitation wavelength and emission intensity. The results show that: by loading the terbium complexes above the different size of nanoparticles, the excitation wavelengths of complexes do not shift, and the emission intensity of the complexes are enhanced in the presence of Ag@SiO2nanoparticles because of metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF), but at only a limited shell thickness particle region.
