In Vitro Photothermal Destruction of Cancer Cells Using Gold Nanorods and Pulsed-Train Near-Infrared Laser
Figure 9
The cell viability at irradiation time of 90 and 120 seconds at laser power 1.0 W (a); (b) shows cell viability at a given irradiation time of 60 seconds and laser power of 1.35 W, for different preset surface temperatures ( and 45°C). The higher surface temperature kills more cancer cells as expected.
