Qualitative cytocompatibilty evaluation of alginate hydrogel/nZnO composite bandages.

Notes: (A) Laser confocal images of phalloidin dye stained HDF cells attached and infiltrated into the composite bandages. (a and b) surface view and Z-stacked images of alginate control. (c and d) surface view and Z-stacked images of alginate + 0.01% nZnO. (e and f) surface view and Z-stacked images of alginate + 0.1% nZnO. Green color represents auto fluorescence image of scaffold whereas red fluorescence is phalloidin-TRITC dye. Scale bar denotes 100 µm. (B) SEM images of HDF cell attachment on (g) alginate control, (h) alginate + 0.01% nZnO, and (i) alginate + 0.1% nZnO.

Abbreviations: HDF, human dermal fibroblast; nZnO, zinc oxide nanoparticles; SEM, scanning electron microscopy; TRITC, tetramethylrhodamine.
