The bio-synthesised Au NPs using Jahnula. aquatica fungi show a promising nanocarrier biocompatibility drug delivery system in cancer clinical treatments, in particular for antibiotics delivery antibiotics in pharmaceutical applications with large-scale commercial production. To the best of our knowledge, freshwater fungi have never been exploited for AuNPs synthesis.
