Hexanoyl-Chitosan-PEG Copolymer Coated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles for Hydrophobic Drug Delivery

preparation and evaluation of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles coated with chitosan for targeting and controlled drug delivery of methotrexate

Preparation and characterization of PEG/Dextran coated superparamagnetic Iron Oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles for biomedical applications

Recent progress in nanotechnology and electrochemical methods can be applied to fine control of the size, crystal structure, and surface properties of iron oxide nanoparticles. Here we appliedcathodic electrochemical deposition (CED) as an efficient and effective tactic for synthesisand double coating of surface of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs). In first step, bare Fe3O4 n...

Biocompatibility of chitosan-coated iron oxide nanoparticles with osteoblast cells

BACKGROUND Bone disorders (including osteoporosis, loosening of a prosthesis, and bone infections) are of great concern to the medical community and are difficult to cure. Therapies are available to treat such diseases, but all have drawbacks and are not specifically targeted to the site of disease. Chitosan is widely used in the biomedical community, including for orthopedic applications. The ...

Surface-Modified Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles Fe3O4@PEG for Drug Delivery

In this work, we report on the synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles at room temperature using microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, CTAB as cationic surfactant and butanol as a cosurfactant. Surface modification have been carried out by using poly(ethyleneglycol) (PEG). The structure,morphology, and magnetic properties of the products were characteriz...
