Quantitative measurement of nanoparticle uptake by flow cytometry illustrated by an interlaboratory comparison of the uptake of labelled polystyrene nanoparticles Hasselt University
Quantification of nanoparticle uptake into cells provides important information for both the assessment of novel nanomedicines and for nanosafety studies. Among several methods available to detect and/or quantify nanoparticle uptake, flow cytometry represents a robust high throughput method that allows measuring the internalisation of fluorescently labelled nanoparticles in thousands of individual cells in relatively short time. Several factors ...
