  1. Conversion of the applied doses from μg particles/mL suspension media (μg/mL) into μg particles/cm2 growth area of a cell culture dish (μg/cm2) into μmol copper/L suspension media (μM) and cm2 particle surface/mL suspension media (cm2/mL).
  2. *Calculated from the specific surface area measured by BET analysis according to [41].
