Abstract
Gold nanoparticles were prepared by metal vapor synthesis using isopropyl alcohol, acetone, and toluene as dispersion media. The electronic states of the metal and the nature of the adsorbed layer on the nanoparticle surface were investigated. Analysis of the photoelectron spectra of the obtained nanoparticles showed that regardless of the synthesis conditions, gold occurs in the Au0, Au+, and Au3+ states in all samples, and a carbon-containing shell is present on all types of metal particles. A study of the anticancer activity of nanoparticles in vitro using human cell lines revealed a dependence of the biological activity on the exposure time for samples obtained in a toluene dispersion medium. The metabolic activity of cancer cells treated with gold nanoparticles formed in isopropyl alcohol or acetone dropped in the very beginning of testing.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
