Abstract

Gold Nano particles are used in several applications like drug transfer and gene etc. due to nontoxic carriers. The gold core imparts stability in these systems. The monolayer tunes the surface properties like charge and hydro-phobicity. Gold Nano particles are widely used in various applications owing to their exclusive visual, chemical and biological properties. Surface Plasmon Resonance is the attractive features of gold Nano particles. Here using the gold Nano particles, it also increases the stability of payload.
