Cytotoxic effects of ZnO and modified ZnO on two cell lines. Non-linear dose response fit for MDA-MB-231 (Adj. R2 = 0.979) showing strong correlation of cytotoxicity with increasing concentration. Plot for normal NIH 3T3 cell shows concentration independent effect of both particles below 100 µg/ml. Two factor ANOVA was used with α = 0.05 for comparing effects of both NPs on NIH-3T3 which gives p value of`0.001 < 0.05 signifying enhancement of selectivity by biocompatible polymer
