Abstract:Au and Ag nanoparticles (NP) were synthesized using a green method that allows control of both particle size and surface chemistry. The gold and silver nanoparticles were coated with a fluorescent goat anti-body IgG that chemically incorporated the nanoparticles and the internalization
behavior was studied by phagocytosis in murine peritoneal macrophages. Despite that, in principle, the presence of a simple metal induces a greater degree of cell death following the particle uptake, our results suggest that a … Show more
