Liberation of copper ions from CuO-NPs and CuO-Fe-NPs in the presence of the copper chelator BCS. CuO-NPs, CuO-Fe-NPs or CuCl2 in concentrations of 100 µM in IB-BSA were mixed with 1 mM BCS (in IB-BSA) in the absence (a) or the presence of 1 mM ascorbate (b) and the increase in absorbance of the Cu+-BCS complex at a wavelength of 484 nm was monitored for up to 30 min (a, b) or recorded after 24 h of incubation (c). The data shown represent means ± SD of values obtained in three independent experiments
