How to prevent Gold Nanorods from forming agglomeration?

20 March 2013 0 2K Report

I have bare Gold nanorods, which I am trying to protect with CTAB. But every time I am ending up with agglomeration of the particles. Can anyone please suggest how to keep the particles in solution without forming agglomeration?
