Figure 3. Cell viability of QD–CPP. A549 cells were treated with QD–CPP complexes (1/40 ratio) for 24 h. The concentrations of QDs used were 25, 50, 100, 200, and 250 nM.
Figure 4. Images of cellular uptake of QD–CPP complexes. Cells were treated with 100 and 250 nM of QDs, or QD–R9, QD–R5W3R4 and QD–[RW]4 mixture (1/40).
