Glutathione redox state in response to CuO NPs. A549 cells treated with CuO NPs at 0, 2.5, 5.0, 10, 20 and 40 μg/ml for 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h. Data is expressed as GSH/GSSG ratio, and each data point represents the mean ± SEM (n = 4). Statistical significance (determined by ANOVA with Tukey posthoc) is shown by * = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, *** = p < 0.005, when compared to medium only treated cells
