Abstract
⺠The geno- and cytotoxicity of gold nanoparticles in cancer and healthy cells were investigated. ⺠The reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was evidenced for both cells. ⺠The healthy cells exhibit less sensitive to DNA damage than cancer cells. ⺠The nanoparticulate systems can be applied in cancer therapy with reduced side effects.
