Assessment of the In Vivo Toxicity of Gold Nanoparticles

<p>Abstract</p> <p>The environmental impact of nanoparticles is evident; however, their toxicity due to their nanosize is rarely discussed. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) may serve as a promising model to address the size-dependent biological response to nanoparticles because they show...
