Abstract
To compare the apoptotic efficiency of AuNPs, ionizing and non-ionizing radiotherapy, phototherapy, and AuNPs-ionizing-radiotherapy), MCF-7 cells were used as a model for luminal B subtypes of breast carcinoma. A mixture of AuNPs [66% of Au-nanospheres (AuNSs) and 34% of Au-nanorods (AuNRs)] was synthesized and characterized by optical spectroscopy, zeta potential, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). MCF-7 were divided into six groups...
