Diffusion of nanoparticles in the cell cytoplasm

In Etoc 2018, we presented the diffusive behavior inside the cytosol of living cells for different kind of nanometric sized nanoparticles. We showed that the passivation of the particles is the main parameter that regulate the diffusion properties of particles smaller than 70nm not only in Hela cells but also in RPE1 and MSC cells.

Here we open the data for the MSC cells.

Experiments consists in the recording of small subregions of the cytoplasm located at the periphery of the cell.

A README file is included in the archive with the recording parameters.

DATA were recorded by Elie BALLOUL

Scripts were written by Mathieu COPPEY, Fred ETOC and modified by Elie BALLOUL.(to use polyfit instead of ezyfit)

We also make available the scripts that we used to generate the maps.

Some functions were found in Matlab Central and their corresponding license is in their respective folders.
