T1 - Imaging of metal-based nanoparticles in tissue and cell samples by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry T2 - Comprehensive Analytical Chemistry, Analysis and Characterisation of Metal-Based Nanomaterials N2 - Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is nowadays a versatile and powerful analytical method for direct solid sample analysis. The applicability has been demonstrated for a wide variety of samples covering hard and soft materials. In an imaging mode the technique provides quantitative information on the elemental distribution within a sample. LA-ICP-MS imaging is of particular interest in biomedical research as the distribution of an element gives valuable insight on uptake and distribution of essential and toxic trace elements, administered contrast agents as well es nanoparticles. LA-ICP-MS is therefore a powerful complement to other imaging techniques. Recent instrumental improvements, especially in sample chamber design, have contributed to better sensitivity and spatial resolution enabling subcellular imaging. The book chapter provides a comprehensive overview about spatially resolved localisation and quantification of various nanoparticles in cells and tissue thin sections by LA-ICP-MS. Furthermore, different sample preparation strategies and internal standardisation and calibration approaches for bioimaging by LA-ICP-MS are summarized and discussed. Metal-containing nanomaterials are used in numerous fields ranging from industrial applications to nanomedicine. Several studies have demonstrated that the physicochemical properties of nanoparticles have an impact on their pharmacokinetics, transfer and clearance. The high sensitivity and multielement capability of LA-ICP-MS enables the elucidation of interactions between tissue components and nanomaterials used as imaging probes or drug carriers. Potential toxic effects are investigated as well. Thus, LA imaging significantly supports the clinical translation of safe and efficient nanoparticles for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Size, shape and surface modification of the NPs determine the uptake rate and pathway into the cells, and therefore impact specific cell components and processes. Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is an established quantitative multi-elemental analysis and mapping technique. In recent years, it was shown that LA-ICP-MS can provide quantitative as well as distribution information of NPs in cell samples. Here LA-ICP-MS was applied for the imaging of individual cells to study the uptake and intracellular processing of metal-containing nanostructures. Additionally, the local distribution of naturally occurring elements in cells like P was measured to indicate cell morphology. The cells were incubated with different types of NPs under varying experimental conditions. For LA analysis, the cells were fixed and dried. Our findings show, that LA-ICP-MS is suitable for the localisation of nanoparticle aggregates within cellular compartments. The studied NPs accumulate in the perinuclear region in the course of intracellular processing, but do not enter the cell nucleus. The uptake efficiency depends strongly on the physicochemical properties of the nanostructures as well as on the incubation conditions like concentration and incubation time. The results demonstrate the potential of LA-ICP-MS providing insight into NP uptake, intracellular distribution and cell-to-cell variation dependent on experimental parameters.

Size, shape and surface modification of the nanomaterials determine the uptake rate and pathway into the cells, and therefore impact specific cell components and processes. In recent years, elemental imaging of biological samples using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is gaining more and more importance. Improvements concerning both spatial resolution (down to 1 µm) and signal-to-background ratio due to low-dispersion LA chambers make LA-ICP-MS particularly interesting for single cell analysis. Here LA-ICP-MS was applied for the imaging of individual cells to study the uptake and intracellular processing of metal-containing nanostructures. The cells were incubated with different NPs under varying experimental conditions and afterwards fixed with para-formaldehyde and dried for LA analysis. High-spatial resolution LA-ICP-MS was achieved by careful optimisation of the laser ablation parameters. Our findings show, that LA-ICP-MS is applicable to localize NP aggregates within cellular compartments. The uptake efficiency depends strongly on the physicochemical properties of the nanostructures as well as on the incubation conditions like concentration and incubation time. The results demonstrate the potential of LA-ICP-MS providing insight into nanoparticle-cell interaction dependent on experimental parameters.
