Adsorption kinetics of plasma proteins on ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) nanoparticles

TLDR
The results indicate that the existence of a Vroman effect, a displacement of previously adsorbed abundant proteins, on USPIO particles has to be denied and leads to the assumption of a long-lived ("hard") protein corona around the iron oxide nanoparticles.
