This report describes the design and synthesis of gold nanostars (AuNSs) containing liposomes by the in situ reduction of gold precursor, HAuCl4 (pre-encapsulated within the liposomes) through HEPES diffusion and reduction. Compared with the conventional process that encapsulates the pre-synthesized...
