Radiosensitization by Gold Nanoparticles: Impact of the Size, Dose Rate, and Photon Energy

Radiosensitization by Gold Nanoparticles: Impact of the Size, Dose Rate, and Photon Energy

Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) emerged as promising antitumor radiosensitizers. However, the complex dependence of GNPs radiosensitization on the irradiation conditions remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the impacts of the dose rate and photon energy on damage of the pBR322 plasmid DN...
