Biocompatibility and Biodistribution of Several Nano-Sized Ceramics Particles

Abstract:

We succeeded in determination the biodistribution of several nano-sized particles administered to mice through the tail vein. After administration, these particles were observed in the lung, liver and spleen. The distribution behaviors depend upon not only chemical species but also the particles size. To estimate their cytocompatibility, these particles were exposed to osteoblastic cell at several concentrations. When the concentration reached at 10 ppm, their viability remained at 80% or more even nano-sized particle contained rare earth element. Only CuO particles indicated the viability decrease. The effect depended on the particle size. These results suggested that the chemical species played a dominant key in the biodistribution and biocompatibility of nanoparticles compared with the size-effect.
