Wetting ability of biological liquids in presence of metallic nanoparticles.
TL;DR: The introduction of nanoparticles in the liquids generally improves the wetting ability and changes other properties of the solution, due to the different distribution of the adhesion forces, to the nature, morphology and concentration of the added nanoparticles.

Gold Nanoparticles by Laser Ablation for X-Ray Imaging and Protontherapy Improvements.
TL;DR: The use of Au-NPs in biocompatible solutions injected in living organism permits their blood transport up to different organs and can be employed as contrast medium to enhance the medical image resolution and to prepare the cancer tissues to be exposed to ionization radiations in order to enhanceThe dose released to the tumor cells.
