ABSTRACT

AuNPs (Gold Nanoparticles) are used in resonance scattering dark-field microscopy for the detection of microbial cells and their metabolites the bio-imaging of tumor cells and for the detection of receptors on their surface and for the study of endocytosis. They are small gold particles with a diameter of 1 to 100 nm which, once dispersed in water, are also known as colloidal gold. Spherical AuNPs possess useful attributes such as size- and shape-related optoelectronic properties, large surface-to-volume ratio, excellent biocompatibility, and low toxicity. These properties make AuNPs an important tool in bionanotechnology. Keywords: Bionanotechnology, Gold Nanoparticles, Endocytosis
