Silver Nanoparticles and Mitochondrial Interaction

Figure 8

TEM images of AgNps (red arrows) in cytoplasmatic space of fibroblast present in a healed skin sample treated with AgNP based Medical devices. AgNps are closed to the outer membrane of the mitochondria that are organized in the perinuclear zone of the cytoplasm (square barked red), recruiting the larger quantity of AgNps present in the cytoplasm.
