Gold Nanoparticles: A new approach for cancer detec tion
Abstract
Gold nano particles are produced in a liquid ("liquid chemical methods") by reduction of chloroauric acid (H[AuCl4]), although more advanced and precise methods do exist. Gold nano particles
are also found to distinguish between cancer cells and noncancerous cells.
Another benefit is that the results are instantaneous. “If you take cells from
a cancer stricken tissue and spray them with these gold nano particles that have
this antibody you can see the results immediately. The scattering is so strong
that you can detect a single particle. The interaction between light and gold
nano structures is not only useful for the treatment of cancer but also forits
diagnosis.
