TOWARDS MECHANISMS OF NANOTOXICITY – INTERACTION OF GOLD NANOPARTICLES WITH PROTEINS AND DNA
Even though most of the existing studies of gold nanoparticles indicate that they are safe to use, some researchers show that specific forms of nanoparticles (e.g. nanorods) are able to destroy the cell membrane and very small nanoparticles (below 37 nm in diameter) in high concentration have been...
