Effects of NP size on ROS production in peripheral blood immune cells. Primary human PBMC were treated with two different concentrations of 8-nm-sized ZnO NPs (5 and 10 mM) for 3 h and ROS production evaluated using a fluorescent microplate reader. Data from a representative experiment are shown (n = 3) witherror bars depicting SE. Data were analyzed using a 2-way ANOVA and asterisks denote statistical significance as defined byp < 0.05
