Microfabricated magnetic microparticles enable high contrast MRI agents
Introduction Chemically synthesized magnetic nanoparticles[1], dendrimers[2], and micrometer-sized particles of iron oxide (MPIOs)[3,4] are becoming increasingly popular as T2 * MRI contrast agents. Among them, the larger microparticles are proving useful for labeling single cells for in vivo imaging[5-7]. In particular, the large magnetic moments of MPIOs means that even individual particles c...
متن کاملCARS microscopy for the visualization of micrometer-sized iron oxide MRI contrast agents in living cells
Micrometer-sized iron oxide particles (MPIOs) attract increasing interest as contrast agents for cellular tracking by clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Despite the great potential of MPIOs for in vivo imaging of labeled cells, little is known on the intracellular localization of these particles following uptake due to the lack of techniques with the ability to monitor the particle upta...
متن کاملHigh‐Throughput Inertial Focusing of Micrometer‐ and Sub‐Micrometer‐Sized Particles Separation
The ability to study individual bacteria or subcellular organelles using inertial microfluidics is still nascent. This is due, in no small part, to the significant challenges associated with concentrating and separating specific sizes of micrometer and sub-micrometer bioparticles in a microfluidic format. In this study, using a rigid polymeric microfluidic network with optimized microchannel ge...
متن کاملPolycatechol Nanoparticle MRI Contrast Agents.
Amphiphilic triblock copolymers containing Fe(III) -catecholate complexes formulated as spherical- or cylindrical-shaped micellar nanoparticles (SMN and CMN, respectively) are described as new T1-weighted agents with high relaxivity, low cytotoxicity, and long-term stability in biological fluids. Relaxivities of both SMN and CMN exceed those of established gadolinium chelates across a wide rang...
متن کاملContrast agents for hepatic MRI
Liver specific contrast media (LSCM) can be subdivided according to different modalities of hepatic distribution: exclusive distribution to the hepatocellular compartment can be obtained using CM which accumulate within the hepatocytes after slow infusion; other CM demonstrate combined perfusion and hepatocyte-selective properties, with an initial distribution to the vascular-interstitial compa...
