From: Short versus long silver nanowires: a comparison of in vivo pulmonary effects post instillation

Silver is still present in the lungs at Day 21. Images are of autometallography -stained slides in the terminal bronchioles [(TB) left], perivascular (blood vessel) region [(BV) middle], and pleura (right). Tissues were obtained 21 days post instillation of sham control (A-C), S-Ag NWs (D-F), or L-Ag NWs (G-I) at 1.0 ml/kg. Panels are Brightfield microscopy images. AD = alveolar duct. Scale bar is 25 μm.
