Fig. 3. Relationship between transport distance and concentration of microspheres for (a) Experiment 04 and (b) Experiment 02. The term F or P denotes whether analysis was by fluorimetry or particle counting, respectively; all analyses for Experiment 02 used particle counting. The term cmax is the maximum observed concentration in solution and co is the injected concentration.
