▼a Noble nanoparticles have attracted a large amount of attention among researchers due to their brilliant colors, which results from their unique optical properties from the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Among different kinds |

▼a The unique optical properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) depend on many different factors, such as the size and shape of the nanoparticles. Besides unique optical properties, AuNPs can be easily modified and conjugated with different kinds of |

▼a Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been widely investigated as a promising antimicrobial agent after recent advances in nanotechnology. However, AgNPs have been found to cause cytotoxicity to mammalian cells in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, |

▼a In the current study, AuNRs were first synthesized, characterized and tested on healthy mammalian cells and tumor cells. Results showed that synthesized AuNRs were highly toxic towards tumor cells and at the same time had little or no influence |
| 520 | |
▼a Next, silver-coated AuNRs (Ag/AuNRs) were synthesized in order to employ the antimicrobial properties of silver. Their antimicrobial properties were tested on different bacteria species. Furthermore, TEM images showed "pits" on the treated S. au |

▼a Finally, some other shapes of nanoparticles, gold nanospheres and gold nanostars, were synthesized and characterized. Results showed limited tunability of gold nanospheres in their absorption band. However, they have the potential to be used as |
