Table 2 The amount of Nile Red released into the cell medium as a percentage of experimentally determined total Nile Red content in the nanoparticles

From: Contact-mediated intracellular delivery of hydrophobic drugs from polymeric nanoparticles

Release medium Total content Percent released
2.9 ± 0.2 ng/ml 6.2 ng/ml 47%
12.7 ± 1.0 ng/ml 25.1 ng/ml 51%
  1. “Release medium” is the measured amount of Nile Red released into the cell medium (n= 2) from the supernatant of centrifuged nanoparticle medium. The total amount of Nile Red in the particles was measured by dissolving the particles in THF.
