ROS and RNS Fluxes at a Macrophage Phagocytic Cup Monitored by Platinum Nanoelectrodes During Lysosomal pH Changes

Caption

Platinum nanoelectrodes measure reactive oxygen and nitrogen species emitted at a macrophage phagocytic cup, revealing how lysosomal pH modulates ROS/RNS flux during frustrated phagocytosis of a glass nanofiber.
