(34). (a,b) KB cells with membrane-bound F-NRs (red) exposed to fs-pulsed NIR laser irradiation (0.75 mW, 81.4 s) experienced membrane damage and blebbing. The loss of membrane integrity was indicated by ethidium bromide (EB) nuclear staining (yellow). (c,d) NIH-3T3 cells were unresponsive to F-NRs and did not suffer photoinduced damage at the same condition. Bar= 10 μm.
