They were used to obtain new nanomaterials based on gold nanoparticles. We have controled the size, shape and surface morphology of these nanomaterials(AuNPs-E1, AuNPs-E2) prepared by using a green method; the new nanomaterials have been used in medicine to treat some skin diseases. • We have evaluated their in vitro and in vivo effect and we have identified the effectiveness of new topic therapies based on nanotechnology using high frequency ultrasound.

(AuNPs-E1 and AuNPs-E2) were prepared and characterized by UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopy and by Transmission Electron Spectroscopy (TEM) (diameters between 25-100 nm) • There were assessed cytotoxicity tests of the extract alone and of the functionalized nanoparticles; • To study the antiinflammatory effect, keratinocytes treated with non-toxic doses of anthocyanins and nanoparticles were exposed to increasing doses of UVB irradiation • The histograms of the skin thickness for 8 patients presented an involution of diseases after treatment, fact that indicates the very good antiinflammatory effect of our nanomaterials.
