Tissue distribution in LLC bearing C57BL mice. C57BL mice were inoculated i.m. on the right flank with LLC cells (2 × 106). After 10 days, HydroCuP was administered i.p. at a dose of 50 mg/kg. The mice were sacrificed after 24 hours and tumor, brain, spleen, kidney, intestine, liver and stomach were excised. Tissues were washed in ice-cold saline and weighed after removing excess fluid. All samples were mineralized in HNO3 and Cu content in each sample was measured by GF-AAS. Error bars indicate the S.D. **P < 0.01; *P < 0.05 (tumor vs organs).
