Study of payload delivery by Fe3O4-Au hybrid NPs. (a,b) Confocal intravital microscopy (IVM) of NRed-NP-Cy5 in superficial 4T1 tumor vessels upon i.v. injection to a mouse (6.6 mg·kg−1 Fe3O4). (a) NRed-NP-Cy5 and particles aggregates (yellow) circulating in tumor vasculature (dashed lines). Cyan – neutrophils (Ly6G), green – Nile Red, red – Cy5. See also Supplementary Video S3. (b) Nile Red release into tumor tissues (arrow). Time lapsed imaging has been collected for 440 s. Blue – neutrophils (Ly6G), green – Nile Red, red – Cy5. See also Supplementary Video S4. (c) IVM of 4T1-GFP tumor (cyan) accumulating NRed-NP-Cy5 6 h after i.v. injection. Green – Nile Red, red – Cy5. (d) High magnification of the selected area from (c). (e) 4T1-GFP tumor from untreated animal, IVM.
