The levels of carbon black nanoparticles (CBNPs) in lung-associated lymph nodes (LALN). (A) The total amount of CBNPs detected in the LALN after intratracheal instillation to rats at 300 µg/rat. The LALN at lower doses (i.e., 30 and 100 µg/rat) showed no detectable levels. (B) The levels of CBNPs per organ weight (wt). The levels of CBNPs per organ weight showed similar values between the lung and LALN at 60 and 90 days after instillation. Data are mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM) (n = 4 for each group)
