Porous Silicon Nanoparticle Photosensitizers for Singlet Oxygen and Their Phototoxicity against Cancer Cells
Open accessAbstract
Porous Si nanoparticles, prepared from electrochemically etched single crystal Si wafers, function as photosensitizers to generate (1)O(2) in ethanol and in aqueous media. The preparation conditions for the porous Si nanoparticles were optimized to maximize (1) the yield of material; (2) its quantum yield of (1)O(2) production; and (3) its in vitro degradation properties. The optimal formulation was determined to consist of nanoparticles 146 ± 7 nm in diameter, with nominal pore sizes of 12 ± 4 nm. The quantum yield for (1)O(2) production is 0.10 ± 0.02 in ethanol and 0.17 ± 0.01 in H(2)O. HeLa or NIH-3T3 cells treated with 100 μg/mL porous Si nanoparticles and exposed to 60 J/cm(2) white light (infrared filtered, 100 mW/cm(2) for 10 min) exhibit ∼45% cell death, while controls containing no nanoparticles show 10% or 25% cell death, respectively. The dark control experiment yields <10% cytotoxicity for either cell type.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
