BACKGROUND Different superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have been tested for their potential use in cancer treatment, as they enter into cells with high effectiveness, do not induce cytotoxicity, and are retained for relatively long periods of time inside the cells. We have analyzed the interaction, internalization and biocompatibility of dimercaptosuccinic acid-coated superparamagnetic...

Alteration in capacity and function of proximal distal convoluted tubules kidney exposed by Molybdenum trioxide nanoparticles female rats (Stereological technique)

in this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles (znonps) were synthesized by chemical method and their antibacterial efficiency against a clinical isolate of staphylococcus aureus was studied. the zinc oxide nanoparticles have shown a commendable inhibition effect on the growth of most notorious bacterial pathogen s.aureus. the nanoparticles size and shapes were characterized by transmission electron m...

BACKGROUND As part of a project designing nanoparticles for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, we have synthesized and characterized a small library of nanoparticles binding with high affinity to the β-amyloid peptide and showing features of biocompatibility in vitro, which are important properties for administration in vivo. In this study, we focused on biocompatibility issues, evaluating p...

Plant-mediated synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles is a promising alternative to the traditional method of physical and chemical synthesis. In this paper, we report the green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) by a biological method. During the study, Zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by Allium sativum skin (garlic skin) extract. Formation of zinc oxide nanoparticles has ...

objective(s):iron oxide nanoparticles have found prevalent applications in various fields including drug delivery, cell separation and as contrast agents. super paramagnetic iron oxide (spio) nanoparticles allow researchers and clinicians to enhance the tissue contrast of an area of interest by increasing the relaxation rate of water. in this study, we evaluate the dependency of hydrodynamic si...

The purpose of this study was to synthesize biocompatible poly(2-hydroxyethyl aspartamide)-C16-iron oxide (PHEA-C16-iron oxide) nanoparticles and to evaluate their efficacy as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging of lymph nodes. The PHEA-C16-iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation method. The core size of the PHEA-C16-iron oxide nanoparticles was about 5 to 7 nm,...

BACKGROUND It was recently reported that iron oxide nanoparticles attenuated antigen-specific humoral responses and T cell cytokine expression in ovalbumin-sensitized mice. It is presently unclear whether iron oxide nanoparticles influence T helper 1 cell-mediated immunity. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of iron oxide nanoparticles on delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH), whos...

Gold-rhodium and gold-molybdenum layers were prepared on a nearly stoichiometric titania and characterized by LEIS, XPS and STM. In the Au-Rh bimetallic system, Rh atoms impinged onto Au clusters pregrown on TiO2(110) became covered by gold atoms. In contrast, Mo caused the disruption of gold nanoparticles.

BACKGROUND The adsorption process by metal oxide nanoparticles has been investigated an effective agent for removing organic and inorganic contaminants from water and wastewater. In this study, iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized in the presence of tangerine peel extract as adsorbent for cadmium ions removal from contaminated solution. Iron oxide nanoparticles prepared by co-precipitation...
