Figure 6.

Intracellular delivery of AuNP–PEG–Chol mediates action potential generation. (A) Action potentials triggered by laser pulses of fixed power and varying duration exhibited by a single DRG cell labeled with AuNP–PEG–Chol on the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. (B) Laser pulse energy Eth at action potential generation threshold as a function of pulse duration, plotted in log–log format, for the cell described in panel A. The line fitted to the data plots the power function equation as described in Figure 5. Values of a and b correspond to 395.72 nJ and 0.62, respectively.
