Figure 6

The apoptosis rate in A549 and MRC-5 cells treated with ZnO-MAA (b), ZnO-MEEAA (c) and untreated with ZnO-AAA NCs cells (d) detected using flow cytometry. The percentage of early and late apoptotic cells is presented in graph (a). Flow charts: lower right quadrant, Annexin V positive and PI negative cells indicates early apoptotic cells; upper right quadrant, Annexin V and PI-positive cells represents necrotic or late apoptotic cells.
