Fig. 2From: Growth inhibition of Trichophyton rubrum by laser irradiation: exploring further experimental aspects in an in vitro evaluation study Effect of a long-pulse 1064-nm Nd:YAG laser small-area irradiation (300, 408 and 600 J/cm2; 200 spots) on the surface temperature and growth of T. rubrum in vitro. A The surface temperature (°C) of the colony before laser irradiation immediately after laser irradiation, and then every two minutes. B Growth area (mm2) of the colonies was measured. *P<0.05,**P<0.01,***P<0.001Back to article page
