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 single diamagnetic catalyCEST MRI contrast agent that detects cathepsin B enzyme activity by using a ratio of two CEST signals.
CatalyCEST MRI can detect enzyme activity by monitoring the change in chemical exchange with water after a contrast agent is cleaved by an enzyme. Often these molecules use paramagnetic metals and are delivered with an additional non-responsive reference molecule. To improve this approach for molecular imaging, a single diamagnetic agent with enzyme-responsive and enzyme-unresponsive CEST signa...
متن کاملHydrothermal Synthesis of an Ethiodol Based Ferrofluid as a Potential MRI Contrast Agent
In the present work, stable ferrofluids containing oleic acid capped magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized via low temperature hydrothermal method. The physical and chemical properties of the synthesized particles were studied using TEM, XRD, AFM, VSM and PCS techniques. Mean particles size of the samples was between 4.5 and 10 nanometers, depending on experimental conditions. Effect ...
متن کاملThe streptokinase-human plasminogen activator complex. Composition and identity of a subcomponent with activator activity.
Reactions between purified plasminogen and streptokinase, labelled with (131)I and (125)I respectively, were investigated by polyacrylamide-gel discontinuous electrophoresis. A molecular complex consisting of both (131)I-labelled plasminogen and (125)I-labelled streptokinase migrated between plasminogen and streptokinase. This complex contained bovine plasminogen activator activity. The relativ...
متن کاملTissue plasminogen activator in cardiac arrest with pulseless electrical activity.
BACKGROUND Coronary thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism are common causes of cardiac arrest. We assessed whether the administration of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation would benefit patients with cardiac arrest and pulseless electrical activity of unknown or presumed cardiovascular cause. METHODS Patients who were older than 16 years of age and who...
