Bucky Tubes Induce Oxidative Stress Mediated Cell Death in Human Lung Cells

Figure 4

Effect of BTs NPs on (a) induction of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), (b) cellular level of glutathione (GSH), and (c) lipid peroxidation (LPO) in A549 cells. The % ROS generation of the control cells was considered 100% and fluorescence intensity was measured by microplate reader while glutathione level and lipid peroxidation were measured spectrophotometrically. Data represents mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. (, , and when compared to control).
