A method for prevention and/or treatment of steatorrhea in a subject is disclosed. The method comprises administering to the subject a composition comprising mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) in an amount effective for prevention and/or treatment of steatorrhea in the subject

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles for oil absorption

A method of synthesizing ligand-conjugated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is disclosed. The method comprises: a) providing an amine-modified silica particle; b) providing a solution comprising Auions; c) suspending the amine-modified silica particle in the solution comprising Auions; d) allowing the Auions to be adsorbed and/or immobilized onto the surface of the amine-modified silica particle; e) exposing the Auions immobilized onto the surface of the amine-modified silica particle to radiation to obtain bare gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) adsorbed and/or immobilized onto the surface of the amine-modified silica particle, wherein the bare AuNPs are without organic surface modifications; and f) reacting a ligand with the bare AuNPs adsorbed and/or immobilized onto the surface of the amine-modified SiNP and thereby obtain ligand-conjugated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).
