Quartz crystal microbalances (QCM) are suitable for real-time dosimetry in nanotoxicological studies using VITROCELL®Cloud cell exposure systems

Abstract: Background Accurate knowledge of cell−/tissue-delivered dose plays a pivotal role in inhalation toxicology studies, since it is the key parameter for hazard assessment and translation of in vitro to in vivo dose-response. Traditionally, (nano-)particle toxicological studies with in vivo and in vitro models of the lung rely on in silio computational or off-line analytical methods for dosimetry. In contrast to traditional in vitro testing under submerged cell culture conditions, the more physiolo… Show more

“…The consistent ca. 10% SD of the deposited dose across all invested volumes tends to be higher than that of other reports from the Vitrocell ® Cloud systems ( Ding et al, 2020 ); however, it may be indicative of the fluorescent microscopy imaging technique as opposed to quartz crystal microbalance quantification. In any case, the device deposits a robust, spatially homogenous dose.…”

“…In order to reproduce a more realistic exposure scenario, maintaining the conditions of temperature and humidity in physiological levels needed in the cell culture, the Vitrocell Cloud system coupled to AeroNeb Lab nebulizer was used for exposure of the cells to CeO2-NPs. During the exposures, Vitrocell Cloud produced a very homogeneous deposition of CeO2-NPs onto the cells similar to previous studies [43]. Thus, a multidose experiment was performed applying three sublethal doses of CeO2-NPs (100 µg/cm²; 10 µg/cm² and 1 µg/cm²) on the apical inserts every 2 weeks for 3 months.…”

“…One of the most commonly used devices is the Vitrocell Cloud (VITROCELL Systems GmbH, Waldkirch, Germany). This device was specifically designed for exposure in ALI through the nebulization of the toxicant in a controlled atmosphere, allowing high deposition rates of the toxicant, as well as robustness of results and high reproducibility [43]. This device offers the possibility to perform in vitro exposures to NPs in a much more realistic scenario.…”
