2.9.1. Biodistribution Study of Curcumin Nanoparticle
The bio-distribution study was performed on 131I-labeled curcumin nanoparticles given intravenously to healthy male Webster mice (100 _Ci/mouse). The bio-distribution of 131I-labeled curcumin was observed at 15 min, 1 h and 17 h after intravenous administration of the sample. Blood and major organs were taken and the radioactivity of 131I-labeled curcumin was measured on a gamma counter.
