Chitosan–niosome–paclitaxel-BODIPY 564/570 DDS migration zones evaluation. a Quantification methodology of extracellular fluorescence intensity. We used multiple radial lines split into three zones each. Zones are 24 µm in length. This methodology is meant to replicate concentric rings of equal length to help describe the DDS presence in the extracellular environment. b Mean fluorescence intensity at 5 min at each zone. Zone 1 showed the highest fluorescence intensity and Zone 3 showed the lowest fluorescence intensity. Error bars: ± 1 SD. *Represents statistically significant difference (ANOVA, p < 0.05)
