Biological Synthesis of Bioactive Gold Nanoparticles from for Dual Chemo-Photothermal Effects against Human Brain Cancer Cells.

The possibility for an ecologically friendly and simple production of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with Chaga mushroom () (Ch-AuNPs) is presented in this study. Chaga extract's reducing potential was evaluated at varied concentrations and temperatures. The nanoparticles synthesized were all under 20 nm in size, as measured by TEM, which is a commendable result for a spontaneous synthesis method utilizing a biological source.
