FIG. 3.

Citrate- and PVP-coated Ag NPs produce influx of PMNs in BALF. Panels show absolute numbers of total PMN cells (neutrophils and eosinophils) Days 1–21 post IT of C20 (A), P20 (B), C110 (C), or P110 (D). Results are from ANOVA considering the interaction between Ag NP dose and time. Analyses were run at P ≤ 0.05 with log-transformed values, and presented (above) on log scales. “D”—difference from the sham control group (same panel, same day). “T”—differences from multiple groups (same panel, same dose, different days). “t”—difference from Day 21 only (same panel, same dose).
