Preparation, purification, and characterization of lanthanide complexes for use as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging.
Polyaminopolycarboxylate-based ligands are commonly used to chelate lanthanide ions, and the resulting complexes are useful as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Many commercially available ligands are especially useful because they contain functional groups that allow for fast, high-purity, and high-yielding conjugation to macromolecules and biomolecules via amine-reactive a...
متن کاملSynthesized Gd2O3 nanoparticles as contrast agent
Introduction: Gd (III) ion has been known to be the best metal ion in the periodic table that can be used as a T1 MRI contrast agent. Gadolinium have 7 unpaired electrons and these electrons can make magnetic area. No other metal ions possess unpaired electron more than this. CAs based on the element Gd are classified as “positive”, by opposition to “negative” CAs. Nowadays, G...
متن کاملPARASHIFT contrast agents - a new approach for molecular imaging by MRI
Introduction Paramagnetic contrast agents are traditionally used in MRI to enhance pathology based on differences in uptake of an injected agent. The common complexes of gadolinium act to produce a T1 shortening of the tissue water proportional to contrast agent concentration. Other agents, such as paramagnetic iron oxide preparations (SPIO or USPIOs) act via through-space distortion of the loc...
متن کاملBiological and Clinical Aspects of Lanthanide Coordination Compounds
The coordinating chemistry of lanthanides, relevant to the biological, biochemical and medical aspects, makes a significant contribution to understanding the basis of application of lanthanides, particularly in biological and medical systems. The importance of the applications of lanthanides, as an excellent diagnostic and prognostic probe in clinical diagnostics, and an anticancer material, is...
متن کاملThe Assessment of Toxicity Characteristics of Cellular Uptake of Paramagnetic Nanoparticles as a New Magnetic Resonance Imaging Contrast Agent
Nanoparticles are unique that enable many promising medical and technological applications intheir physical, and chemical properties. It is widely accepted that nanoparticles should bethoroughly tested for health nanotoxicity, but a moderate risk analysis is currently prevented by arevealing absence of mechanistic knowledge of nanoparticle toxicity. The purpose of this study<b...
