Abstract Background Nanodiamonds (NDs) have gained a rapidly growing interest in biomedical applications; however, little is known regarding their biokinetics owing to difficulties in measurements and limited synthesis/purification technologies. In this study, we investigated the distribution kinetics of detonation-synthesized NDs in mice via intravenous injection to evaluate the parameters that determine the behavior of the particles. We prepared two distinctive NDs that controlled the sp 3 /sp 2 carbon ratio and particle size by coating them with serum proteins. The four control samples were intravenously injected into mice, and tissue distribution and clearance were evaluated at 30 min and 1, 7, and 28 days post-injection. Results The sp 3 /sp 2 carbon ratio showed no correlation with the organ distribution of the NDs. However, hydrodynamic size showed an excellent correlation with organ distribution levels: a negative correlation in the liver and positive correlations in the spleen and lungs. Furthermore, the deposition levels of NDs in the lung suggest that particles smaller than 300 nm could avoid lung deposition. Finally, a similar organ distribution pattern was observed in mice injected with carbon black nanoparticles controlled hydrodynamic size. Conclusions In conclusion, the tissue distribution of NDs is modulated not by the sp 3 /sp 2 carbon ratio but by the hydrodynamic size, which can provide helpful information for targeting the tissue of NDs. Furthermore, the organ distribution pattern of the NDs may not be specific to NDs but also can apply to other nanoparticles, such as carbon black. |
