The kinetics of DPA release from B. anthracis spores treated with SWCNTs-NIR. (A) The kinetics of DPA release from B. anthracis spores that were treated with different concentrations of SWCNTs coupled with 20 min NIR radiation, during one hour of germination. Spore number: 5.3 × 106 spores. (B) The kinetics of DPA release from B. anthracis spores that were treated with SWCNTs (20 μg/mL) and different time of NIR treatment during one hour of germination. Spore number: 3.6 × 107 spores. Error bars present the standard deviations of triplicated experimental results.
