General description
Application
- Since they adhere to cell membranes, AuNPs are used in cellular and intracellular targeting in targeted drug delivery applications and may also be used in biodistribution studies
- AuNPs may also be used in photothermal therapy and radiotherapy.
- Proposed applications of gold nanoparticles are as:drug delivery agents for cancer therapy, coatings, plastics, nanowire, nanofiber, textiles, catalyst applications.
- They may also be used in carrying siRNA which acts against human prostate carcinoma cells by inhibiting a specific cancer gene.
Features and Benefits
- The negatively charged siRNA-PEG complex, attached to positively charged GNPs, is easily cleavable in reductive cytosolic environment thus enabling the release of siRNA into cytosol.
- The PEG coating decreases the cytotoxicity and increases effciciency of GNPs. PEG increases the stability of the nanoparticles and prevents agglomeration.
Storage Class
12 - Non Combustible Liquids
