Stable aqueous dispersion of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles protected by charged chitosan derivatives
This article presents the synthesis and characterization of biocompatible superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) coated with ultrathin layer of anionic derivative of chitosan. The water-based fabrication involved a two-step procedure. In the first step, the nanoparticles were obtained by co-precipitation of ferrous and ferric aqueous salt solutions with ammonia in the presence of c...
متن کاملWashing effect on superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles.
Much recent research on nanoparticles has occurred in the biomedical area, particularly in the area of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs); one such area of research is in their use as magnetically directed prodrugs. It has been reported that nanoscale materials exhibit properties different from those of materials in bulk or on a macro scale [1]. Further, an understanding of the...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Imaging of Mouse Islet Grafts Labeled with Novel Chitosan-Coated Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles
OBJECT To better understand the fate of islet isografts and allografts, we utilized a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging technique to monitor mouse islets labeled with a novel MR contrast agent, chitosan-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide (CSPIO) nanoparticles. MATERIALS AND METHODS After being incubated with and without CSPIO (10 µg/ml), C57BL/6 mouse islets were examined under transmission el...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging of transplanted mouse islets labeled with chitosan-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles.
Although only 10% of islet recipients maintain insulin independence, 80% of them are C-peptide positive at 5 years after transplantation. To better understand the fate of transplanted islets, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique has been used to detect Feridex-labeled islet grafts in rodents. In this study, we used a novel MRI contrast agent, chitosan-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide...
متن کاملTargeting experimental orthotopic glioblastoma with chitosan-based superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (CS-DX-SPIONs)
Background Glioblastoma is the most devastating primary brain tumor of the central nervous system in adults. Magnetic nanocarriers may help not only for a targeted delivery of chemotherapeutic agents into the tumor site but also provide contrast enhancing properties for diagnostics using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods Synthesized hybrid chitosan-dextran superparamagnetic nanopartic...
