One-Pot, Surfactant-Free Synthesis of Gold Nanostars and Evaluation of Their Antibacterial Effects against Propionibacterium acnes
Anisotropic gold nanoparticles, especially gold nanostars, are used in many fields of biomedical applications such as sensing, targeted drug delivery, and diagnostic and photothermal therapy. In this study, we introduced a novel application of gold nanostars as an antimicrobial agent. While spherica...
