Size distribution and cell uptake of iron nanoparticles. A, TEM micrograph of iron nanoparticles in 0.1% FBS cell culture media at the concentration of 50 μg/ml. B, Dynamic light scattering measurements of iron nanoparticles in 0.1% FBS cell culture media at the concentration of 50 μg/ml. C, TEM micrograph of iron nanoparticle uptake by HMVECs. HMVECs were stimulated with 50 μg/ml iron nanoparticles for different periods of time ranging from 10 minutes to 5 hours as indicated. The arrows indicate the location of iron nanoparticles. Each TEM micrograph represents one HMVEC.
