An individual 80% dioleoylphospholcholine (DOPC), 20% dioleoyl trimethylammonium propane (DOTAP) liposome containing fluorescent allophycocyanin (APC) protein and 80 nm gold nanoparticles (NPs) attached to an anionic glass surface before light irradiation. (b) 10 nsec after irradiation, optical scattering from a vapor bubble generated from heat dissipation from the nanoparticle as it cooled. Note the anisotropy of the bubble (pulse length 0.5 ns, wavelength 532 nm (c) 10 msec after irradiation, the APC fluorescence has expanded (arrow), signifying ejection from liposome. (Scale bar is 10 µm. Adapted and reproduced with permission from Elsevier from Figure 4 of Anderson et al. J. Controlled Release. 2010;144:151–8. (8).
