Nanoencapsulation of ultra-small superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide into human serum albumin nanoparticles
Human serum albumin nanoparticles have been utilized as drug delivery systems for a variety of medical applications. Since ultra-small superparamagnetic particles of iron oxide (USPIO) are used as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging, their encapsulation into the protein matrix enables the synthesis of diagnostic and theranostic agents by surface modification and co-encapsulation of ac...
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 کاملSuperparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles: magnetic nanoplatforms as drug carriers
A targeted drug delivery system is the need of the hour. Guiding magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with the help of an external magnetic field to its target is the principle behind the development of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) as novel drug delivery vehicles. SPIONs are small synthetic γ-Fe₂O₃ (maghemite) or Fe₃O₄ (magnetite) particles with a core ranging between 10 nm ...
متن کاملCitrate capped superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles used for hyperthermia therapy
Superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles (MNP) of about 10 nm were designed with proper physicochemical characteristics by an economic, biocompatible chemical co-precipitation of Fe and Fe in an ammonia solution, for hyperthermia applications. Synthetic methodology has been developed to get a well dispersed and homogeneous aqueous suspension of MNPs. Citric acid was used to stabilize the magne...
متن کاملInteraction of functionalized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with brain structures.
Super Paramagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) combined with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are under clinical evaluation to enhance detection of neurodegenerative diseases. A major improvement would be to link therapeutic drugs to the SPIONs to achieve targeted drug delivery, either at the cell surface or intracellularly, together with active disease detection, without inducing cell re...
