From: IR808@MnO nano-near infrared fluorescent dye’s diagnostic value for malignant pleural effusion

Fig. 4

A Normal human cells (BEAS-2B, HUVEC, HSF, and VE) showed no uptake of IR808@MnO after incubation. Human malignant cell lines (CL1-5, A549, MDA-MB-468, U-87MG, MKN-7, and Hela) showed significant uptake of IR808@MnO under similar staining and imaging conditions. Results are shown with images obtained from IR808@MnO staining (NIR). All images were acquired by an NIR fluorescence small animal live imager. B It showed the average radiant efficiency values of different tumor cells. There was a significant difference between the values of malignant tumor cells and benign cells (p < 0.0001), the average radiant efficiency of different malignant tumor cells were different, and the values of U-87MG and CL-5 were significantly different from those of the other four groups of tumor cells (p < 0.0001)
