Inhibitory effects of nanostructures on cancer cells.

(A–C) Growth kinetics of T98G cells at 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment by ZnO-NSts (NPls, NSs, NRs and NFs) at 11.71–187.5 μg/mL concentrations. Untreated cells are taken as control and all values given as mean (±SD) of three independent experiments, n = 3. (D) Effect of ZnO nanostructures (ZnO-NPls, ZnO-NSs, ZnO-NRs, ZnO-NFs) on colony forming capacity of exponentially growing T98G cell lines studied by clonogenic assay at 11.71–93.75 μg/mL concentrations. Data presented are mean values from three independent observations, n = 3. Error bars represent the ± SD (n = 3). Student’s t-test was performed, *p < 0.05, δp < 0.01 and #p < 0.001.
