چکیده

Carborane-intercalated layered double hydroxide nanohybrids (CB-LDH) and a magnesium ferrite (MF) supported-CB-LDH core-shell nanocomposite (CB-LDH@MF) are reported. The preparation of nanohybrids were carried out by exchanging the interlayer nitrate groups of Mg-Al-NO3-LDH with monothiol-o-carborane (SCB), 1-methyl-2-carboxyl-o-carborane (MeCB), 1-phenyl-2-carboxyl-o-carborane (PhCB) and 1,12-dicarboxyl-p-carborane (COOHCB) molecules. A magnetic core-shell nanocomposite was further prepared by supporting the COOHCB-LDH nanohybrid on MF nanoparticles. The obtained materials were characterized by means of several physical and chemical methods. Chemical compositions were determined by elemental analysis, ICP measurements and SEM-EDX data. Structural characterization was performed with powder-XRD, FTIR and magnetization measurements. Morphological analyses were conducted with electron microscopy imaging (SEM and TEM). Thermal stabilities were investigated by TGA/DTA. Carborane release from LDH layers was tested by tracing the amount of boron species transferred to the solution phase with ICP-MS measurements. The results verified that the prepared nanohybrids have the potential to be used in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) and magnetically targeted-BNCT applications.

Anticancer Activity of Ferulic Acid-Inorganic Nanohybrids Synthesized via Two Different Hybridization Routes, Reconstruction and Exfoliation-Reassembly

We have successfully prepared nanohybrids of biofunctional ferulic acid and layered double hydroxide nanomaterials through reconstruction and exfoliation-reassembly routes. From X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy, both nanohybrids were determined to incorporate ferulic acid molecules in anionic form. Microscopic results showed that the nanohybrids had average particle size of 150 nm wi...
