Controlling the phase and morphology of amorphous Se nanoparticles: their prolonged stabilization and anticancer efficacy

Applications of amorphous Se nanoparticles (NPs) are limited due to their meticulous synthetic procedures and rapid phase transformation leading to low stability. A highly facile one-pot green method is being reported, wherein apart from tuning the morphology and the phase of the Se NPs, their stabi...

More Information
Summary:Applications of amorphous Se nanoparticles (NPs) are limited due to their meticulous synthetic procedures and rapid phase transformation leading to low stability. A highly facile one-pot green method is being reported, wherein apart from tuning the morphology and the phase of the Se NPs, their stabilization could be prolonged to months as compared to a few minutes-to-days, known hitherto.
