The characterization and internalization of PS-NPs in human trophoblast cells. (A, B) TEM image of PS-NPs (scale bar, 200 nm). (C) Size analysis of PS-NPs in TEM images. (D, E) Internalization of FITC-PS-NPs into Swan 71 cells analyzed by flow cytometry. (F) Distribution of FITC-PS-NPs in Swan71 cells detected by confocal microscopy. Nucleus (blue), cytoplasm (red), and FITC-PS-NPs (green, indicated by yellow arrows). Scale bar, 5 μm for all images. (G) The average number of FITC-PS-NPs were counted in the nucleus and cytoplasm of Swan 71 cells
