TL;DR: In this paper, a surface modification scheme for silica-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP) via a one-pot, in situ method at room temperature is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for biomedical applications.
TL;DR: Due to their high magnetization, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles induce an important decrease in the transverse relaxation of water protons and are, therefore, very efficient negative MRI contrast agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macromolecular Ligands for Gadolinium MRI Contrast Agents

TL;DR: This work shows that macromolecular ligands have the potential to have a substantially increased relaxivity in comparison to existing commercial Gd3+ MRI contrast agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogels Incorporating GdDOTA: Towards Highly Efficient Dual T1/T2 MRI Contrast Agents†
Thomas Courant,V G Roullin,Cyril Cadiou,Maité Callewaert,Marie Christine Andry,Christophe Portefaix,Christine Hoeffel,Marie C. de Goltstein,Marc Port,Sophie Laurent,Luce Vander Elst,Robert N. Muller,Michael Molinari,Françoise Chuburu +13 more
TL;DR: Do not tumble dry: Gadolinium-DOTA encapsulated into polysaccharide nanoparticles (GdDOTA NPs) exhibited high relaxivity, due to efficient Gd loading, reduced tumbling of the Gd complex, and the hydrogel nature of the nanoparticles.
