Electrophysiological effects of polyethylene glycol modified gold nanoparticles on mouse hippocampal neurons
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can cross the blood brain barrier, thus can be used as nanocarriers in brain drug delivery. However, the effect of bare and polyethylene glycol-modified (PEGylated) AuNPs on normal neural function has not been extensively investigated. In this study, bioelectrical properti...
