What is it about?

The publication focuses on the synthesis of silica nanoparticles by the micro-emulsion method using OTES, VTES and APTES for hydroxyl and or amine terminal groups. We also studied the effect of size, concentration and surface chemistry on cellular uptake and cell viability of macrophages cells.

Why is it important?

The nanoparticle formulation can be employed for delivery of poorly soluble molecules.
