Abstract

Metal nanoparticles are widely employed in bio-medical applications because of their high thermal stability and low size-to-volume ratio. Due to their simplicity in synthesis, stability, and characterization, low toxicity, and simplicity in detection, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are a natural choice for bio-medical applications. The synthesis of gold nanoparticles has been carried out using a variety of chemical techniques over the last few decades. The development of new AuNP synthesis techniques is the main emphasis of this review.
