Polycatechol 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 کاملStrategies for increasing relaxivity of gold nanoparticle based MRI contrast agents.
The factors limiting the relaxivity (r) of MRI contrast agents based on small (∼2.0 nm) gold nanoparticles functionalised with paramagnetic chelates were explored using EPR spectroscopy. The EPR analysis suggested that nanoparticle-attached chelates exhibit relatively high tumbling rates which restrict their relaxivity. Two different strategies were employed in order to test this hypothesis and...
متن کاملNext Generation Lanthanide – Based Contrast Agents for Applications in MRI, Multimodal Imaging, and
A new class of polymer stabilized gadolinium trifluoride nanoparticles (NPs) have been developed as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), with potential long term goals in targeted imaging and anti-cancer therapy. The NPs are comprised of a 90/10 mixture of GdF3/EuF3 and are coated with linear polyacrylic acid (PAA) chains consisting of 25 repeating ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Chitosan Coated Manganese Zinc Ferrite Nanoparticles as MRI Contrast Agents
Manganese zinc ferrite nanoparticles (MZF NPs) were synthesized by using a direct, efficient and environmental friendly hydrothermal method. To improve the colloidal stability of MZF NPs for biomedical applications, NPs were coated with chitosan by ionic gelation technique using sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) as crosslinker. The synthesized NPs were characterized by X ray diffraction (XRD) analy...
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...
