Preparation of functionalized and gold-coated cobalt nanocrystals for biomedical applications

چکیده
We present the synthesis, structural and magnetic characterization of cobalt-based nanocrystals with controlled size (5–25 nm; 71 nm) and tailored morphologies (spheres, discs with specific aspect ratio of 5 20 nm and core-shell structures). The reproducible synthesis route for Au-coated, high moment, cobalt nanocrystals presented here opens up possibilities for a number of biomedical applications and surface functionalities. r 2005 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) based nanoparticles are biocompatible and biodegradable and therefore have been extensively investigated as therapeutic carriers. Here, we engineered diagnostically active PLGA nanoparticles that incorporate high payloads of nanocrystals into their core for tunable bioimaging features. We accomplished this through esterification reactions of PLGA to generate p...
