Bisphosphonate-Anchored PEGylation and Radiolabeling of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide: Long-Circulating Nanoparticles for in Vivo Multimodal (T1 MRI-SPECT) Imaging
Lydia Sandiford,Alkystis Phinikaridou,Andrea Protti,Levente K. Meszaros,Xianjin Cui,Yong Yan,George Frodsham,Peter Williamson,Nicholas Gaddum,René M. Botnar,Philip J. Blower,Mark Green,Rafael Torres Martin de Rosales +12 more
TL;DR: A new stealth PEG polymer conjugate containing a terminal 1,1-bisphosphonate (BP) group for strong and stable binding to the surface of ultrasmall-superparamagnetic oxide nanomaterials (USPIOs) is prepared, demonstrating the potential of PEG(5)-BP-USPios for the development of targeted multimodal imaging agents for molecular imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
