Gold nanoparticles, when coated with a cancer antibody, are effective at binding to tumour cells and can be used in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. When bound to the gold, the cancer cells scatter light, making it very easy to identify the noncancerous cells from the malignant ones.

Human neural stem cells stained for nestin (red). Nestin is a type of intermediate filamant protein that is used as a marker of neural stem cells. The blue dots are the cell nuclei stained with DAPI. Neural stem cells can be made to develop into cells found in the central nervous system; neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes.
