Mitogenic Effects of Phosphatidylcholine Nanoparticles on MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells

Table 1

Effect of pH on the particle size and zeta potential of the phosphatidylcholine nanoparticles.

FormulationParticle size ( .nm) ± SDPdIZ-Pot (mV) ± SD

pH 5.0 0.494
pH 7.0 0.544

.nm: diameter expressed in nm; PdI: polidispersion index.
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) nanoparticles were prepared in pH 5.0 and pH 7.0 buffers and analyzed by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). The size and zeta potential of the particles were measured and reported as mean ± S.E.M. ( ).
