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.
Journal ArticleDOI

The First Magnetic Nanoparticle‐Supported Chiral DMAP Analogue: Highly Enantioselective Acylation and Excellent Recyclability

TL;DR: The first chiral DMAP analogue immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles is a highly active catalyst that is capable of the acylation of racemic sec-alcohols under convenient, process-scale friendly conditions and possesses unprecedented recyclability.
Journal ArticleDOI

The immobilisation of chiral organocatalysts on magnetic nanoparticles: the support particle cannot always be considered inert

TL;DR: It seems clear that the immobilisation of sensitive chiral organocatalysts onto magnetite nanoparticles does not always result in heterogeneous catalysts with acceptable activity and selectivity profiles, and that consequently the applicability of the strategy must be ascertained on a case-by-case basis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precursor and solvent effects in the nonhydrolytic synthesis of complex oxide nanoparticles for bioimaging applications by the ether elimination (Bradley) reaction.

TL;DR: Investigation of the solvent and alkoxide precursor effect on the nonhydrolytic sol-gel synthesis of oxide nanoparticles by means of an ether elimination (Bradley) reaction indicates that the best crystallinity of the resulting oxide particles is achieved on application of aprotic ketone solvents and of smallest possible alkoxide groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomimetic synthesis of hierarchically porous nanostructured metal oxide microparticles--potential scaffolds for drug delivery and catalysis.

TL;DR: The developed synthetic approach has been applied successfully also for the preparation of analogous hybrid microparticles based on zirconium dioxide or aluminum sesquioxide, which makes the produced material highly attractive for application in medical implants.
