iron oxide (fe2o3) nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple approach using sodium borohydride (nabh4) and iron chloride hexahydrate (fecl3.6h2o). their physicochemical properties were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), x-ray diffraction (xrd) and electron dispersive spectroscopy (eds). xrd pattern showed that the iron...

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) are used in a rapidly expanding number of research and practical applications in the biomedical field, including magnetic cell labeling separation and tracking, for therapeutic purposes in hyperthermia and drug delivery, and for diagnostic purposes, e.g., as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging. These applications require good NP stabil...

While nanoparticles exert bactericidal effects through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the processes of the internalization of and the direct physical damage caused by iron oxide nanoparticles are not completely clear. We hypothesize that direct physical or mechanical damage of the cell membrane and cytoplasmic integrity by nanoparticles is another major cause of bacterial deat...

use of zinc and iron oxide are common in the desulfurization process from natural gas. in thisresearch, after determinations of the size and specifications through tem and xrd for each of the metaloxides, two different size ratios were used, 0.66 for zinc oxide and 0.142 for iron oxide. further, absorption of sulfur compounds in gas (hydrogen sulfide (h2s), carbonyl sulfide (cos), methyl mercap...

A scalable technique for making silica coatings with embedded two-dimensional arrays of iron oxide nanoparticles is presented. The iron oxide nanoparticle arrays were formed by depositing quasi-crystalline ferritin layers, an iron storage protein with an iron oxide mineral core, on solid substrates by a spread-coating technique based on evaporation-induced convective assembly. The layer of prot...

PURPOSE To evaluate spin-lock MR for detecting superparamagnetic iron oxides and compare the detection sensitivity of quantitative T1ρ with T2 imaging. METHODS In vitro experiments were performed to investigate the influence of iron oxide particle size and composition on T1ρ . These comprise T1ρ and T2 measurements (B0 = 1.41T) of agar (2%) with concentration ranges of three different iron ox...

in this work, we report on the synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles at room temperature using microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, ctab as cationic surfactant and butanol as a cosurfactant. surface modification have been carried out by using poly(ethyleneglycol) (peg). the structure,morphology, and magnetic properties of the products were characteriz...

Switchable surface redox chemistry is demonstrated in gold@iron/iron oxide core-shell nanoparticles with ambient oxidation and plasmon-mediated reduction to modulate the oxidation state of shell layers. The iron shell can be oxidized to iron oxide through ambient oxidation, leading to an enhancement and red-shift of the gold surface plasmon resonance (SPR). This enhanced gold SPR can drive redu...

In order to realize the efficient utilization of high phosphorus iron ore resources, a new method gasification removal in hydrogen-rich sintering process was proposed. this paper, behavior high-phosphorus studied. Thermodynamic calculation possible reactions is carried out by using FactSage6.1 software, and phase transformation distribution roasting reduction were analyzed XRD, SEM-EDS EPMA. Th...
