Problems solved by technology

However, many research methods on the metabolism of nanomaterials in animals mainly focus on the tissue level, such as fluorescent labeling methods, which cannot detect the actual uptake of cells; and non-quantitative detection methods such as TEM may cause deviations due to instrumental and human reasons. Lack of strength
[0004] At present, at the level of single-cell detection, the existing related experiments only stop at the quantitative detection of the element content in a single cell, which is a relatively quantitative detection method, and has not realized the absolute quantitative detection of a single nanoparticle in a single cell.

Abstract

The invention provides an absolute quantitative detection method for gold nanorods in single cells. The method comprises the following steps of firstly preparing a standard sample plate by using photoresist technology to obtain a series of sample pit arrays containing AuNRs, performing counting statistics on the AuNRs in the sample pits, simultaneously determining the content of Au in the corresponding sample pits, establishing an absolute quantitative detection standard of the AuNRs according to the correspondence between the content of Au and the number of AuNRs, finally distributing the cells exposed to AuNRs in single cells, measuring the content of Au in each cell, and counting the number of AuNRs swallowed in each cell according to an absolute quantitative detection standard curve ofAuNRs. The method can be used to compare the ability of different liver cells to ingest gold nanorods, to create models of different concentrations and different modifications of gold nanorods distributed in mouse liver cells, and to study the metabolic behavior of animals at the cellular level. At the same time, the method can also be applied to other absolute quantitative detection of nanoparticles which are easy to count under SEM.
