We demonstrate the effective cytotoxic properties of a dye-sensitized metal oxide in an in vitro model of a human lung cancer cell line (A549 cells) upon light irradiation, where a type I mechanism photo-dynamic therapy is realized exclusively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
