Figure 1From: Comparison of In vitro Nanoparticles Uptake in Various Cell Lines and In vivo Pulmonary Cellular Transport in Intratracheally Dosed Rat Model(a) The solid state properties of pyrene were monitored at pre- and post-milling using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) in a Bruker D-8 Advance diffractometer. Data were collected using a step scan of 0.02° per point with a one second/point counting time over a range of 3°–35° two-theta. No changes of solid state properties of pyrene were observed. (b) Distribution of nano pyrene. The image was taken on a Nikon E600 polarizing microscope equipped with a Nikon DXM 1200 digital camera and filters for light polarization.
