Figure 5

Nude balb/c mice with pancreatic xenografts in the right flank were sedated and grounded to a copper plate with conducting copper tape in order to prevent excess current inducing electrothermal injury (A). Tumors heat significantly more so than the mouse body due to C225 mediated AuNP delivery (B). In addition, 100 μg/mL AuNPs in deionized water heat in an RF field whereas the conducting copper tape protects mice extremities (ears, tails, paws) from excess current and electrothermal injury.
