ROS generation in AgNP-treated A549 human lung epithelial adenocarcinoma cells. Fluorescence images of A549 cells without silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) (0) and cells treated with biologically synthesized AgNPs (bio-AgNPs) (25 μg/ml) and chemically synthesized AgNPs (chem-AgNPs) (70 μg/ml) and incubated at different time points. Both bio-AgNPs and chem-AgNPs support the formation of hydrogen peroxide inside the A549 cells.
