Abstract

Silver nanoparticles stabilized by soluble starch were synthesized and characterized. In vivo studies in rats showed no toxicity and revealed their distribution in various tissues and permeability across BBB. This starch stabilized silver nanoparticles have good biological characteristics to act as a potential promising vector for gene/drug delivery.
