Characterization of the PPHC nanoparticle.

Notes: (A) Size measurement by DLS. (B) Morphology reflected by TEM. (C) Size stability of PPHC while stored at 4°C, (D) in the presence of PBS, and (E) in the presence of 1640 medium containing 10% FBS at different time. (F) Size fluctuations of PPHC nanoparticles after incubated with 2 mM H2O2. The concentrations of Cur were all kept at 35 μg/mL. The data are shown as mean ± standard error of mean (n=3).

Abbreviations: PPHC, curcumin-coordinated reactive oxygen species-responsive nanoparticle; DLS, dynamic light scattering; TEM, transmission electron microscopy; PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; FBS, fetal bovine serum; H2O2, hydrogen peroxide; Cur, curcumin; PDI, polydispersity index.
