Fig. 10From: Multiparametric analysis of anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of gold nanoprisms on mouse and human primary and transformed cells, biodistribution and toxicity in vivoBiodistribution of nanoparticles in vivo. Mice were injected (i.v) with 6 μg/g NPR-PG (green) or the same volume of PBS in the group control (black). The mice were sacrificed after (a and b) 3 days or (c and d) four months and the organs were lyophilized and processed as indicated in experimental section, in order to analyse the quantity of gold by ICP-MS. Data represent mean values ± SD from three miceBack to article page
