Targeting of urokinase by magnetic force.

Alleviation of myogenic ptosis by magnetic force.

Ptosis has usually been treated by surgery and the literature contains suggestions of over eighty different operations for its correction. Duke-Elder (I952) has pointed out that, in spite of the variety and ingenuity of remedial operations, the results are by no means invariably brilliant and in cases due to neuromuscular disease shortening of the lid is usually unsatisfactory. Apart from the c...

Reconstruction of Solar Coronal Linear Force-Free Magnetic Field

Distinguishing magnetic and electrostatic interactions by a Kelvin probe force microscopy–magnetic force microscopy combination

The most outstanding feature of scanning force microscopy (SFM) is its capability to detect various different short and long range interactions. In particular, magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is used to characterize the domain configuration in ferromagnetic materials such as thin films grown by physical techniques or ferromagnetic nanostructures. It is a usual procedure to separate the topograp...

Quantitative Measurement of the Magnetic Moment of Individual Magnetic Nanoparticles by Magnetic Force Microscopy

The quantitative measurement of the magnetization of individual magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) using magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is described. Quantitative measurement is realized by calibration of the MFM signal using an MNP reference sample with traceably determined magnetization. A resolution of the magnetic moment of the order of 10(-18) A m(2) under ambient conditions is demonstrated, w...

Magnetic Graphene Oxide Nanocarrier as a drug delivery vehicle for MRI monitored magnetic targeting of rat brain tumors

Introduction: Glioblastoma multiform is the most common malignant brain tumor, with an invasive nature. Despite the development of conventional therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, because of high recurrence rates, the prognosis remains very poor. Over the last decade, nanotechnology has represented an innovative method as nanoparticle-based drug delivery ...
