Au-DMSA potential as a tracer for MSC tracking in computed microtomography. a–c Analysis of MSC precipitates in Sky-Scan 1640 microtomograph in which cross-sections of samples in Eppendorf tubes are represented: a water, b unlabeled MSC, c MSC labeled with Au-DMSA. d–g Sky-Scan 1640 images of longitudinal sections of mice. The animals were immediately analyzed after intranasal instillation with unlabeled cells (d) or with Au-DMSA labeled cells (e). Five days later, animals instilled with unlabeled cells (f) and Au-DMSA labeled cells (g) were analyzed again. Aw airways; H heart; L liver
