Assessment of gold nanoparticle effect on prostate cancer LNCaP cells

In recent years gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have received considerable attention for various biomedical applications including diagnostics and targeted drug delivery. However, more research is still needed to characterize such aspects of their use in clinical oncology as permeability, retention and f...
