Polyaspartic acid coated manganese oxide nanoparticles for efficient liver MRI.
We report in this communication a simple, facile surface modification strategy to transfer hydrophobic manganese oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) into water by using polyaspartic acid (PASP). We systematically investigated the effect of the size of PASP-MONPs on MRI of normal liver and found that the particles with a core size of 10 nm exhibited greater enhancement than those with larger core sizes.
متن کاملDendronized iron oxide nanoparticles as contrast agents for MRI.
Covalent attachment, through a phosphonate anchor, of hydrophilic pegylated dendrons on iron oxide nanoparticles results in versatile, robust, and highly relaxing MRI contrast agents.
متن کاملUltrasmall cationic superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles as nontoxic and efficient MRI contrast agent and magnetic-targeting tool
Fully dispersible, cationic ultrasmall (7 nm diameter) superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, exhibiting high relaxivity (178 mM(-1)s(-1) in 0.47 T) and no acute or subchronic toxicity in Wistar rats, were studied and their suitability as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging and material for development of new diagnostic and treatment tools demonstrated. After intravenous injecti...
متن کاملMagnetic hyperthermia and MRI relaxometry with dendrimer coated iron oxide nanoparticles
Introduction: Recently, some studies have focused on dendrimer nanopolymers as an MRI contrast agent or a vehicle for gene and drug delivery. Considering the suitable properties of these materials, they are appropriate candidates for coating iron oxide nanoparticles which are applied to magnetic hyperthermia. To the best of our knowledge, the novelty of this study is the inves...
متن کاملExceedingly small iron oxide nanoparticles as positive MRI contrast agents.
Medical imaging is routine in the diagnosis and staging of a wide range of medical conditions. In particular, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is critical for visualizing soft tissue and organs, with over 60 million MRI procedures performed each year worldwide. About one-third of these procedures are contrast-enhanced MRI, and gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) are the mainstream MRI cont...
