Anti-cancerous effect of albumin coated silver nanoparticles on MDA-MB 231 human breast cancer cell line

Abstract With the aim of making specific targeting of silver nanoparticles as a drug for tumor cells and developing new anticancer agents, a novel nano-composite was developed. Albumin coated silver nanoparticles (ASNPs) were synthesized, and their anti-cancerous effects were evaluated against MDA-M...
