Dear Magdalena,

In my knowledge, only rats and mice models are available till now to determine nanoparticle bio distribution assays and appropriate detection methods. Any how, I am sending you an article I hope it will guide you about and solve your query.

Regards

Sridhar Vadahanambi

Not true.. dozens of papers on NPs in zebra fish ..

Yes, it is true. I agree with your comments.

I am sending other article regarding animal model (Mice and Zebra fish) to determine nanoparticle distribution.

Dear Sridhar Vadahanambi,

Can you give me idea of animal models other than mice, rats and zebra fish to determine nanoparticle distribution. If you have such information please share. It will be very useful for Magdalena.

Primates were used to test the toxicity and biodistribution of quantum dots

Dear Robert please send pdf of your suggested article to help Magdalena.

Magdalena Schimke

Thank you all for the information!

I did not expect quantum dots were already applied to primates

(transparent) zebra fish is a good model, but we lack the facilities...
