Abstract

This review presents the main characteristics of metal nanoparticles (NPs), especially consisting of noble metal such as Au and Ag, and brief information on their synthesis methods. The physical and chemical properties of the metal NPs are described, with a particular focus on the optically variable properties (surface plasmon resonance based properties) and surface-enhanced Raman scattering of plasmonic materials. In addition, this chapter covers ways to achieve advances by utilizing their properties in the biological studies and medical fields (such as imaging, diagnostics, and therapeutics). These descriptions will help researchers new to nanomaterials for biomedical diagnosis to understand easily the related knowledge and also will help researchers involved in the biomedical field to learn about the latest research trends.
