Figure 8From: Synergistic photothermal ablative effects of functionalizing carbon nanotubes with a POSS-PCU nanocomposite polymerIncreased cell kill after functionalization with POSS-PCU. Flow cytometry results reveal that 47.3% (A) of cells were destroyed when NIR is applied to pristine CNTs. Upon functionalization with POSS-PCU, a synergistic effect is observed, increasing cell kill to 95.12% (B).Back to article page
