Synthesis, characterization and applications of gold nanoparticles in cancer treatments.

Keywords: Cancer, Nanoparticles, Biosynthesis, Diagnostic, Treatment, Pharmacodynamic

Abstract

Nowadays, cancer is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity despite the many treatments available. For this reason, the search for novel treatments that do not negatively affect the quality of life of the patient continues. Gold nanoparticles are an alternative that combines diagnosis and treatment, the latter can be enhanced by using biological molecules to obtain them, as well as with conjugation with anticancer drugs.
