Figure 3

The surface density attached to nanocarriers with different injection numbers and sizes. (A) PCN-224 nanocarriers for diameters of 90 nm, 150 nm, 180 nm, and 300 nm; (B) ZIF-90 nanocarriers for diameters of 70, 90, 120, 150, and 200 nm; and (C) MOF-801 nanocarriers for diameters of 100 nm, 150 nm, 200 nm, 250 nm, and 300 nm. (D) ZIF-8 nanocarriers for diameters of 78.8 nm, 105.7 nm, 130 nm, and 150 nm. (E) UIO-66 nanocarriers for diameters of 72 nm, 140 nm, 208 nm, 270 nm, and 319 nm. In all nanocarriers, at larger diameters and with more inlets, the amount of surface density of nanocarriers adhered to the plaque is the highest.
