Popis: Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) find a number of applications in many fields of electronics, catalysis, optics and biomedicine. This work reports a robust, fast and easy synthesis protocol, based on the Turkevich method to obtain AuNPs. Simple characterization techniques based on UV-Vis spectroscopy and transmission electronic microscopy are also reported. The resulting AuNPs presents properties at a nanometric scale, high purity and they may find potential uses in the treatment of cancer, antiviral and antibacterial agents and biosensors among others.
