Milk shows potential as CT contrast agent.
of these two bacteria may influence weight, the researchers performed biochemical and genomic analyses of the gut microbes in obese and lean mice. They found that the microbial genomes of the bacteria found in obese mice were rich in genes encoding enzymes that break down otherwise indigestible food. “Our results indicate that the obese microbiome has an increased capacity to harvest energy fro...
متن کاملSynthesized Gd2O3 nanoparticles as contrast agent
Introduction: Gd (III) ion has been known to be the best metal ion in the periodic table that can be used as a T1 MRI contrast agent. Gadolinium have 7 unpaired electrons and these electrons can make magnetic area. No other metal ions possess unpaired electron more than this. CAs based on the element Gd are classified as “positive”, by opposition to “negative” CAs. Nowadays, G...
متن کاملGd-DTPA as a contrast agent in CT.
An evaluation was done of the effect of gadolinium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) on computed tomographic (CT) studies performed after magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. CT scans of two solutions of Gd-DTPA demonstrated substantial attenuation. In two patients who underwent CT after Gd-DTPA-enhanced MR imaging, the high attenuation of concentrated Gd-DTPA was seen in the urinary bladde...
متن کاملDextran-encapsulated barium sulfate nanoparticles prepared for aqueous dispersion as an X-ray contrast agent
Barium sulfate (BaSO4) nanoparticles (\100 nm) are of interest to provide improved performance over microscale BaSO4 particles, which are currently used clinically as an X-ray contrast agent or radiopacifier, and to further enable passive or targeted delivery of BaSO4 contrast agents. The stability of BaSO4 nanoparticle dispersions in aqueous media is critical for these uses but has received li...
متن کاملInvestigation of acoustic properties of silica coated gold nanoparticle as contrast agent for Ultrasonography
Interoduction: Ultrasound images have often low contrast due to small differences in acoustic impedance between different tissues. Air or gas microbubbles that surrounded by membrane are most of the contrast agents in ultrasound imaging. Problems such as instability in sound pressure and inability in penetrating from the blood vessel into body tissues limited the use of microbubbles into the in...
