Rapid Photoinduced Single Cell Detachment from Gold Nanoparticle-Embedded Collagen Gels with Low Denaturation Temperature

Cell Separation is important in various biomedical fields. We have prepared gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-embedded collagen gels as a visible-light-responsive cell scaffold in which photoinduced single cell detachment occurs through local thermal denaturation of the collagen gel via the photothermal effe...
