Raman and FTIR characterization of DEP
Raman spectra were recorded using a Renishaw inVia Raman microscope (controlled by
WiRE 3.0 software) equipped with a 785 nm near-IR laser. Laser light was focused through a
Leica 50 × 0.75 N PLAN optical glass microscope objective. The instrument was wavelength
calibrated with silicon at a static spectrum centered at 520.5 cm-1 for 1 second. Samples of DEP
were dropped on MgF2 and spectra were collected in static mode of 1 accumulation at 10 seconds
laser exposure over a wavenumber range of 100-3200 cm-1.
The FT-IR spectra were recorded using micro transmittance mode by Varian 660-IR
(Agilent Technologies) with Varian Resolution Pro software. The dry DEP sample was 1%
uniformly mixed with KBr powder and the spectra were collected with Universal Reflectance
Accessory at a single point spectrum for 64 scans with an 8 cm-1 resolution.
The Raman spectrum of DEP displays two distinct peaks, both are from the carbon core
of the DEP: a D peak and a G peak (Figure S3 (a)). The D peak (~1362 cm -1) is related to the
interaction between carbon atoms during the breathing vibrational mode, while the G peak
(~1597 cm-1) corresponds to the interaction between carbon atoms during the in-plane stretching
vibrational mode (Zhu et al., 2005).

suspended in CH2Cl2 collected over a wavenumber range of 100-3200 cm-1 at 1% laser power for 10
seconds (a). Bright field image of dry DEP (b). Scale bar = 10 µm. FT-IR spectrum of DEP powder (c).
In FTIR spectrum, a few peaks were observed: 2360 cm-1 is from CO2 asymmetric
stretching (WebBook), 1646 cm-1 is assigned to C=N stretching of semicarbazones and/or
a b c
carbohydrazone (Lin-Vien et al., 1991), 1558 cm-1 could be contributed from carboxylic acid
salts (Zhu et al., 2005), 669 cm-1 would be from deformation vibration of CO2, S-N stretch, or
substituted benzenes (Lin-Vien et al., 1991). There were not strong peaks from the functional
groups of nitro-aromatic compounds, nitrate, ammonium, or sulfate compounds that were usually
presented in DEP (Arai, 1993; Polidori et al., 2008; Reff et al., 2005).
Cytokine and Chemokine analysis of DEP treated SAEC and A549 cells
Compared to A549 cells, SAEC released more cytokines and chemokines. Upon DEP treatment, SAEC released higher levels of IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-13, IL- 17,
Eotaxin, IP-10, MCP-1 and Figure S2. DEP induced cytokines and chemokines release from
SAEC and A549 cells before and after DEP treatment. Histograms of IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-
10, IL-12p70, IL-13, IL-15, IL-17, IL-23, IFNγ, TNFα, TNFβ, Eotaxin, I-309, IP-10, MCP-1, MCP-2 and
RANTES showed mean values of three independent experiments of both types of cells. Cells were
exposed to 10µg/mL DEP for 2h before measurement. Unit of Y-axis: ng/ml. Error bars are standard
deviation of the mean.
MCP-2, while higher levels of Eotaxin, MCP-1, MCP-2 and RANTES were only observed in A549 after exposure. Both Eotaxin and MCP-2 levels were found to be increased for SAEC cells more than A549 cells; however the amount of MCP-1 increased for SAEC is less than that of A549 cells (Fig. S4). The higher levels of cytokines/chemokines released due to pro-inflammatory responses (cytokines/chemokines), more sensitive the cells in response to DEP.
Effect of different donors on biochemical and biophysical properties of SAECs

locations on cells: nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell membrane. (b) Difference spectra for the averages of
SAECs taken from two different donators at three locations on cells: nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell
membrane. (c) Score cluster plots with two principal components (PCs) for SAEC from different donors.

Spectra are collected on three locations per cell for four randomly selected cells. (d) Young’s modulus
and adhesion force of SAECs measured from two different donors.
To begin to explore sources of potential bias in our results, we repeated measurements using
SAEC from two distinct human donors (Fig. S3). In the three cellular regions selected for
Raman measurement, the SAEC from the two donors were similar in measurements and response
to DEP-treatment (not shown) but were distinguishable based on donor, and the extent of the
differences was further modified by the passage number of cell culture. However, SAEC from
each of the two donors were also similar in being markedly distinct in all measurements
compared with A549 cells (Fig 2-3).
Cell viability assessment
To test cell viability of SAEC and A549 after DEP exposure, the cell viability was analyzed
using LIVE/DEAD Viability/Cytotoxicity Assay Kit (Invitrogen) according to the
manufacturer’s instruction. Briefly, (1) cells cultured in culture flask were harvested and then

Figure S4. Representative fluorescence images of cell viability evaluation. SAEC and A549 cells were
treated without DEP (Row 1, 3), and SAEC and A549 cells were exposed to 10 µg/ml DEP for 2 hours
(Row 2, 4). Cells are stained with Invitrogen LIVE/DEAD Viability/ Cytotoxicity Assay Kit. Green
fluorescence presents live cells, whereas red fluorescence shows dead or membrane-damaged cells. All
images were obtained with 10× lens. These fluorescence images together revealed that SAEC and A549
cells which were used for Raman and AFM experiments were mostly live.
suspended in fresh growth media, and 2 mL of cell suspension was seeded into poly-D-lysine
coated glass-bottom dishes (MatTek Cop. USA) and further cultured for 1 day, following by
DEP treatment; (2) cells were then washed two times with media prior to addition of fluorescent
reagents; (3) 200 µl of mixed solution of 2 µM Calcein AM and 4 µM ethidium homodimer-1
(EthD-1) (both from Invitrogen) was added directly to cells, and incubated cells for 30 mins at
room temperature; (4) cells were imaged using fluorescence microscope with DP30BW CCD
camera (Olympus IX71) to analyze the relative proportion of live/dead cells. Here, a 10×
objective was used to observe fluorescence. Calcein AM is well retained within live cells
producing green fluorescence; however, EthD-1 enters cells with damaged membrane and binds
to nucleic acids, thereby producing a red fluorescence in dead or membrane-damaged cells.
Therefore, the live/dead cells were differentiated visually.
