The field of metal nanotechnology continues to draw the attention of researchers from different areas due to the outstanding properties of nanoparticles. The main aims of this research were to obtain and to study two types of gold nanoparticles; different obtaining pathways (the chemical synthesis and the biosynthesis based on an aqueous extract of lemon balm) were involved in this research. The chemically synthesized nanoparticles were loaded with lupeol. After a preliminary physico-chemical characterization, the compounds obtained were tested in order to evaluate the effects on the viability of colon cancer cells. The formulation of these new gold nanoparticles with average size between 38 and 82 nm, with a good stability against the tendency to form agglomerations according to the Zeta potential values, was confirmed by UV-Vis spectra; the particles containing lupeol have show the best activity against the colon cancer cells.

The fourth generation cephalosporin antibacterial agent, cefepime, was loaded into layered double hydroxides for enhancing antibiotic efficiency, reducing side effects, as well as achieving the sustained release property. The intercalation of antibiotic into the inter-gallery of ZnAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) was carried out using ion exchange method, by this constituting a nano-sized organic-inorganic hybrid material for a controlled release novel formulation. Although cefepime is a broad spectrum antibiotic, it has various adverse effects and a significant degradation rate. Thus, the preparation and physico-chemical characterization of nanomaterials able to intercalate this drug is an important study for medical and pharmaceutical field. The antibiotic inclusion into LDHs nanostructure was confirmed by advanced characterization techniques and the release profile of cefepime was analysed with the respect to pH of the simulated media.
