摘要：

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are by far the most studied nanomaterials by the scientific fraternity, possibly due to their immense potential in medical applications. Nevertheless, there is a disparity of opinion that prevailed concerning the toxicity of AuNPs. This study, therefore, presents a systematic review concerning toxicity related to AuNPs with the help of recently published databases. The disparity is due to the fact that the adoption of various protocols in the assessment of toxicity over the years that led to divergent views about the actual safety of AuNPs. This paper has considered a few recent research works and their databases to assess the toxicity of AuNPs in vivo and in vitro. Further, this paper also discussed the possible approaches that could effectively minimize the lethal effects of AuNPs and elaborated on the future scope of this interesting and highly useful research. For time being, it is concluded here that nanomaterial safety data are scarce, and it is not even an exaggeration to say that that is even scarcer than reported. © (2024) Society for Biomaterials & Artificial Organs #20005824.
