Figure 6: Photodynamic and photothermal capability of the NS - SOSG fluorescence spectra of pure hypericin (A) and NS (B) excited with 543 nm laser at different irradiation times (2.0 W/cm2). Temperature curves of equal concentration of pure gold nanostars and gold nanostars in NS, pure hypericin, and denatured BSA, all irradiated with 675 nm laser at 2.0 W/cm2 (C).
