A Simple Spectroscopic Method for Differentiating Cellular Uptakes of Gold Nanospheres and Nanorods from Their Mixtures

See the difference: UV/Vis spectroscopy allows differentiation of the cellular uptakes of gold nanospheres and nanorods from their mixtures by taking advantage of their distinctive optical signatures (see picture).
