Figure Lengend Snippet: SL spectra obtained from various biologically relevant media like phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and live-cell imaging (LCI) used under fluorescence microscopy for imaging of living cells and cell culture medium (RPMI) in comparison with SL from pure water (a) in the absence of nanoparticles dispersed in the solution and (b) with ZnO-NH 2 NCs at 200 μg/mL concentration. US power = 1.5 W/cm 2 .

Article Snippet: The light spectra of SL emitted photons were collected for various media, i.e., physiologic solution (0.9 wt % NaCl), phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, Sigma), live-cell imaging solution (LCI, Molecular Probes, Invitrogen), complete cell culture medium (RPMI-1640, ATCC with 10 vol % fetal bovine serum, ATCC, and 1 vol % penicillin–streptomycin) for culturing cells in vitro, in the presence and absence of ZnO-NH 2 NCs at a concentration of 200 μg/mL.
