Optimisation of computational, biological and physical methods to study the cellular entry of nanoparticles

This thesis focuses on current methods for nanoparticle characterisation and analysis of cellular interactions. The specific interaction between HeLa cells and 20 nm carboxylate-modified polystyrene nanoparticles is examined in detail, and the effects of serum proteins in corona formation is analyse...
