Figure 8.

Penetration of polystyrene 200 nm nanoparticles through CF sputum. Polystyrene nanoparticles densely coated with low MW PEG (PS-PEG) have greater penetration through CF sputum compared to non-PEGylated particles (PS). Treatment with N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) increases penetration of both coated and non-coated particles. Mean ± SD are shown. Redrawn using data from Ref. [60].
