Shape-dependent cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of gold nanoparticles synthesized using green tea extract
Abstract In the present report, three different shapes of chitosan-capped gold nanoparticles (nanospheres, nanostars, and nanorods) were synthesized to investigate the effects of shape on cytotoxicity and cellular uptake in cancer cells. Green tea extract was utilized as a reducing agent to reduce g...
