Figure 3. Role of dissolved oxygen on the SWNT-GSH reaction.
(a) GSH depletion is significantly inhibited under low O2 conditions compared with reaction in oxygen-saturated water (p<0.005 for CNT dose of 1.0mg/ml); (b) dissolved oxygen is consumed quickly only when both SWCNT and GSH present are the system. Data for P-SWNT (329 m2/g)
