A novel MRI contrast agent synthesized by ion exchange method
Objective: In this study, the zeolite-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were evaluated as MRI contrast agent and effect of the nanocomposite synthesis method on MRI contrast was tested. Materials and Methods: Ion exchange method was used for synthesis of iron oxide-zeolite and the as prepared nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM. The nanocomposite toxicity in the cell culture, a...
متن کاملA responsive MRI contrast agent to monitor functional cell status.
It has been shown that insoluble Gd chelates are suitable MRI contrast agents for conditional activation by intracellular lipases. The DTPA-based, insoluble, inactive contrast agent was internalized into dendritic cells by phagocytosis. Cleavage of long aliphatic side chains by intracellular lipase activity leads to the contrast agents solubility and hereby its activation depending on the enzym...
متن کاملPseudothrombocytopenia--a cautionary tale.
Multichannel electronic cell counters are now in widespread use in haematology laboratories. Platelet counts are given routinely by many instruments and low platelet counts generate much further investigation. A falsely low platelet count may expose the patient to unnecessary and expensive investigation and treatment, and we report two illustrative cases. The platelet counts were performed on b...
متن کاملSoliloquy: a Cautionary Tale
The Soliloquy primitive, first proposed by the third author in 2007, is based on cyclic lattices. It has very good efficiency properties, both in terms of public key size and the speed of encryption and decryption. There are straightforward techniques for turning Soliloquy into a key exchange or other public-key protocols. Despite these properties, we abandoned research on Soliloquy after devel...
متن کاملTwitter911: A Cautionary Tale
Researchers have argued that social media, and in particular, Twitter, can be searched to improve “situational awareness” in emergency situations; that is, to provide objective, actionable, real-time information to first-responders. Prior studies have examined cases of very rare, catastrophic emergencies that took place over many days, such as the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. We asked instead ...
