Fig. 2From: Differential pulmonary effects of CoO and La2O3 metal oxide nanoparticle responses during aerosolized inhalation in miceWhole lung burden and clearance of CoO and La2O3 nanoparticles. Lungs and associated lymph nodes from mice were analyzed by INAA for initial whole lung burden (1 h post exposure on day 4) and lung clearance (56 days post exposure) for CoO and La2O3 nanoparticles at 10 and 30 mg/m3. Values are presented as μg of nanoparticle per weight of lung. n = 5 male mice per group. *p < 0.05 represents significance between air control and CoO or La2O3 nanoparticle-exposed mice. # p < 0.05 represents significance between CoO and La2O3 nanoparticle-exposed miceBack to article page
