Cooperative Organization in Iron Oxide Multi-Core Nanoparticles Potentiates Their Efficiency as Heating Mediators and MRI Contrast Agents

TL;DR: This study proves for the first time that cooperative magnetic behavior within highly crystalline iron oxide superparamagnetic multi-core nanoparticles can improve simultaneously therapeutic and diagnosis effectiveness over existing nanostructures, while preserving biocompatibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles biosynthesized with Rhizopus oryzae protein extract

TL;DR: In this article, a simple one-pot green chemical method for the biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles by reducing chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) with protein extract of Rhizopus oryzae to produce novel gold nano-bio-conjugates (AuNBCs) was described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water-soluble superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles with biocompatible coating for enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.

TL;DR: The cell tests performed with primary human immune-competent cells confirmed the excellent biocompatibility of USIRONs and the potential of the DHAA-Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles as negative contrast agents for MRI with optimal hydrodynamic size for extended blood circulation times was confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Production of cellulose nanocrystals using hydrobromic acid and click reactions on their surface

TL;DR: In this article, the use of hydrobromic acid (HBr) with the application of sonication as a function of concentration (1.5-4.0m), temperature (80-100m), and time (1-4h) was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linear assemblies of magnetic nanoparticles as MRI contrast agents.

TL;DR: The potential use of polyelectrolyte stabilized magnetite nanoparticles as contrast agents is shown by measuring their MR response in live rats and the new magnetic fluids have demonstrated good biocompatibility and potential for in vivo MRI diagnostics.
