Gold Nanoparticles for Biology and Medicine [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie - International Edition, 2010 AbstractGold colloids have fascinated scientists for over a century and are now heavily utilized in chemistry, biology, engineering, and medicine. Today these materials can be synthesized reproducibly, modified with seemingly limitless chemical functional groups, and, in certain cases, characterized with atomic‐level precision.

Fluorescent Radiosensitizing Gold Nanoparticles [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 Ultrasmall polyaminocarboxylate-coated gold nanoparticles (NPs), Au@DTDTPA and Au@TADOTAGA, that have been recently developed exhibit a promising potential for image-guided radiotherapy. In order to render the radiosensitizing effect of these gold nanoparticles even more efficient, the study of their localization in cells is required to better ...

Gold Nanoparticles in Cancer Theranostics [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Conventional cancer treatments, such as surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, have achieved significant progress in cancer therapy. Nevertheless, some limitations (such as toxic side effects) are still existing for conventional therapies, which motivate efforts toward developing novel theranostic avenues.

Bleaching of sol-gel glass film with embedded gold nanoparticles by thermal poling [PDF]
, 2006 Gold clusters embedded in glass are expected to be hard to dissolve in the form of ions since gold is essentially a nonreactive metal. In spite of that, bleaching of Au-doped nanocomposite sol-gel glass film on a soda-lime glass substrate is demonstrated
