Embodiment 1

[0041] (1) Preparation of gold nanoclusters: freshly prepared HAuCl 4 The solution (8mM / mL) and GSH solution (150mM / mL) were added to 43.5mL of cold ultrapure water, and stirred in an ice bath (200rpm / min) for 3min, forming a white Au(I)-SG insoluble matter. The cold tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) solution (molar ratio: TBAB / Au=9.3:1) was added to the above mixture and stirred vigorously for 5 minutes and then allowed to stand for 2 hours. Adjust the pH value to ≈3.0 with 1M HCl, and continue to ice bath for 12h to form gold nanoclusters.

[0042] (2) Purification of gold nanoclusters: centrifugation to remove the insoluble Au(I)-SG complex, ultrafiltration and concentration, adding NaCl and methanol to precipitate the gold nanoclusters, freeze-drying and put it at 4°C for use.

Abstract

The invention provides a Gd<3+>-induced self-assembly method of gold nanoclusters for forming gold nanoparticles and applications of the gold nanoparticles. The Gd<3+>-induced self-assembly method comprises the following steps: a preparation step of the gold nanoclusters, specifically comprising the following substeps: preparing the gold nanoclusters by adopting chiral L-form glutathione as a sulfydryl ligand, and dissolving the gold nanoclusters in deionized water, thus forming a solution A; a preparation step of trivalent gadolinium ions Gd<3+>, specifically comprising the following substeps: dissolving gadolinium chloride hexahydrate in deionized water, thus preparing a solution B, and carrying out ultrasonic treatment for later use; and a Gd<3+>-induced self-assembly step of the gold nanoclusters, specifically comprising the following substeps: dropwise adding the solution B into the solution A slowly, and inducing the gold nanoclusters to form the gold nanoparticles through self-assembly. The method is simple, the material synthesis cost is low, the reaction conditions are simple, the operation is easy, the prepared gold nanoparticles have the enhanced fluorescence imaging and CT imaging effects, Gd<3+> is chelated, and the gold nanoparticles can be taken as a nuclear magnetic imaging contrast agent of tumor. The experiment result shows that the prepared gold nanoparticles can be well applied to the field of multi-modal imaging of the tumor.
