Listed are NPs’ structure, precursors, and coating; “cells” stands for the cell line; [NPs] is the nanoparticle concentration; tinc is the incubation time; cell damage is that after incubation.
Pt precursor always Pt(acac)2.
Fe contribution from Fe2O3 shell not included.
Fe contribution from Fe2O3 shell included.
[Fe] cannot be calculated.
