Survival Rates of Mice Inoculated on Day 0 with ip Injections of A2780 Ovarian Carcinoma Cellsa
| group | no. of animals in the group | survival rate (days) |
|---|---|---|
| PBS | 17 | 40.6 ± 8.2 |
| PBS and US | 5 | 39.6 ± 6.5 |
| P-105 empty micelles | 13 | 51.9 ± 21.6 |
| P-105 empty micelles and US | 13 | 47.2 ± 9.0 |
The mice were treated by ip injections of PBS or stabilized micelles on days 1, 4, 7, and 11. Some groups of animals were sonicated for 30 s with 1 MHz ultrasound at a power density of 1.2 W/cm2; ultrasound was applied to the abdominal region of a mouse 1 h after the injection.
