Figure 2

Analysis of BALF in the intratracheal instillation study. (A) Total cell count. (B) Neutrophil cell count. (C) Alkaline phosphatase. Each column and bar represents the mean ± standard deviation of five rats. An asterisk indicates a statistically significant difference of P < 0.05 compared to each negative control group; double asterisk, of P < 0.01 compared to each negative control group. A high dose of fullerenes induced transient inflammatory response, and a low dose of fullerenes did not.
