The structural, chemical, and magnetic properties of magnetite nanoparticles are compared. Aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy reveals the prevalence of antiphase boundaries in nanoparticles that have significantly reduced magnetization, relative to the bulk. Atomistic magnetic modelling of nanoparticles with and without these defects reveals the origin of the reduced...

Results Uncoated synthesized magnetite nanoparticles and nanoparticles coated by different polysaccharides had no significant effect on synaptic vesicle acidification, the initial velocity of L-[14C]glutamate uptake, ambient level of L-[14C]glutamate and the potential of the plasma membrane of synaptosomes, and conductance of planar lipid membrane. Native ferritin-based magnetic nanoparticles h...

The purpose of the current research is investigating the phenylalanine removal by using magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4) from water samples. The effect of pH, contact time and phenylalanine concentration on phenylalanine adsorption efficiency by magnetite nanoparticles are studied in a batch system. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray Diffraction Patterns (XRD) and...

Magnetite nanoparticles possess several properties that can make them useful for targeted delivery of radiation to tumors for the purpose of brachytherapy. Such particles are biodegradable and magnetic and can emit secondary radiation when irradiated by an external source. In this work, the dose distribution around a magnetite particle of 10 nm diameter being irradiated by monochromatic X-rays ...

iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation method using ammonia as precipitation agent. most researchers usually add ammonia into the iron salt solution but in this work the salt solution drop wise has been added to the ammonia and the new obtained results were compared with those of other researches. magnetic properties of nanoparticles were measured by vsm. the effect of rea...

a powerful and convenient reaction procedure for the c-n coupling reaction (the buchwald-hartwig reaction), yielding products of n-arylanilines and n-arylamines in both conventional heating and microwave irradiation has been reported. the protocol utilizes a stable and new supper ferromagnetic nanoparticle chelating n-heterocyclic dicarbene palladium(ii) complex (pd-nhc) as catalyst which helps...

Theoretical analysis has been carried out to establish the heat transport phenomenon of six different ferromagnetic MnZnFe2O4-C2H6O2 (manganese zinc ferrite-ethylene glycol), NiZnFe2O4-C2H6O2 (Nickel zinc ferrite-ethylene glycol), Fe2O4-C2H6O2 (magnetite ferrite-ethylene glycol), NiZnFe2O4-H2O (Nickel zinc ferrite-water), MnZnFe2O4-H2O (manganese zinc ferrite-water), and Fe2O4-H2O (magnetite fe...

recent progress in nanotechnology and electrochemical methods can be applied to fine control of the size, crystal structure, and surface properties of iron oxide nanoparticles. here we appliedcathodic electrochemical deposition (ced) as an efficient and effective tactic for synthesisand double coating of surface of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (spions). in first step, bare fe3o4 n...

Potential for interspecies hydrogen transfer within paddy soil enrichments obtained via addition of magnetite nanoparticles and ethanol (named as PEM) was investigated. To do this, PEM derived from rice field of Hangzhou (named as PEM-HZ) was employed, because it offered the best methane production performance. Methane production and Fe (III) reduction proceeded in parallel in the presence of m...
