Synthesis 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 کاملRevisiting the risks of MRI with Gadolinium based contrast agents—review of literature and guidelines
UNLABELLED Gadolinium based contrast agents (GBCA) have been linked to the occurrence of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) in renal impaired patients. The exact interaction between the various different available formulations and occurrence of NSF is not completely understood, but has been postulated. This association has triggered public health advisory bodies to issue guidelines and best pr...
متن کاملDesign and Synthesis of Manganese based MRI contrast agent: A dual contrast under different MRI parameters
Introduction: Application of Gadolinium (Gd) based MRI contrast agents is limited in patients with severe renal disease or following liver transplant due to association of a recently reported incurable and nonmitigable Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) disease. These limitations give rise to choose Mn (having 5 unpaired electrons) as a better paramagnetic label to obtain MRI contrast agents. ...

متن کاملManganese Based MR Contrast Agents: Formulation and Clinical Applications
This paper discusses the development and clinical applications of positive manganese based MR contrast agents, including both intravenous (i.v.) and oral formulations. The i.v. formulation is a manganese–dipyridoxyl diphosphate chelate which is commercially available; whereas the oral formulation is a mixture of MnCl2, alanine and Vitamin D3, which is currently under clinical trials. The compos...
