Synthesis of Gd2O3nanoparticles for MRI contrast agents

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...

Synthesis of Gd2O3 nanoparticles for MRI contrast agents

Contrast 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...

AAZTA-based bifunctional chelating agents for the synthesis of multimeric/dendrimeric MRI contrast agents.

Monomeric and dimeric bifunctional chelates based on the AAZTA (6-amino-6-methylperhydro-1,4-diazepinetetraacetic acid) platform bearing arylamino and isothiocyanate groups for conjugation to biomolecules were synthesised. Both systems were used for the preparation of high relaxivity dendrimeric (PAMAM G1) and multimeric octa-Gd(III) complexes. These systems show enhanced relaxometric propertie...
