Gold nanoparticle clusters for the investigation of therapeutic efficiency against prostate cancer under near-infrared irradiation

Abstract Gold particles have been widely used in the treatment of prostate cancer due to their unique optical properties, such as their light-heat conversion in response to near-infrared radiation. Due to well-defined synthesis mechanisms and simple manufacturing methods, gold particles have been fa...
