Magnetic chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by the suspension cross-linking technique for use in the application of magnetic carrier technology. The Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation of FeCl2 and FeCl3 solution in base medium for using in the preparation of the magnetic chitosan. The morphological and magnetic properties of the magnetic nanoparticles were chara...

Combination of doxorubicin with sorafenib (SF) was reported to be a promising strategy for treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we designed a reduction-responsive supramolecular nanosystem based on poly (ethylene glycol)-β-cyclodextrin (PEG-CD) and a disulfide-containing adamantine-terminated doxorubicin prodrug (AD) for efficient co-delivery of doxorubicin and sorafenib. PEG...

Herein, for the first time, we report a generalized strategy for the successful synthesis of highly crystalline metal and metal oxide nanoparticles embedded in a carbon matrix by the controlled thermolysis of metal organic frameworks (MOFs). The rationalized synthesis strategy of a broad range of metal and metal oxides nanoparticles, such as Cu/CuO, Co/Co(3)O(4), ZnO, Mn(2)O(3), MgO and CdS/CdO...

Hip resurfacing with cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloy was developed as a surgical alternative to total hip replacement. However, the biological effects of nanoparticles generated by wear at the metal-on-metal articulating surfaces has limited the success of such implants. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the combined exposure to CoCr nanoparticles and cobalt ions released fro...

background: magnetic nanoparticles in a variable magnetic field are able to produce heat. this heat (42-45°c) has more selective effect on fast dividing cancer cells than normal tissues. methods: in this work magnetite nanoparticles have been prepared via co-precipitation and phase identification was performed by powder x-ray diffraction (xrd). magnetic parameters of the prepared nanoparticles ...

cd1-xmnxs (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2) nanoparticles, prepared by co-precipitation method under ultrasonic irradiation, were studied by means of x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, ftir and uv-vis  spectroscopy measurements. the average particle size of nanoparticles from the scanning electron microscopy image is about 20-30 nm. results show that partial substitution of cd by mn leads to a re...

The magnetite (Fe3O4) – agar nanocomposite was prepared by co-precipitation of Fe (III) and Fe (II) ions for the first time. The obtained samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. FT-IR results confirm the formation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles...

BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease with severe consequences for the quality of life of sufferers. Regrettably, the inflammatory process involved remains unclear, and finding successful therapies as well as new means for its early diagnosis have proved to be daunting tasks. As macrophages are strongly associated with RA inflammation, effective diagnosis and therapy may...

Sn 0.986 Ni 0.014 O nanoparticles have been synthesized by a simple co-precipitation method. Nanoparticles crystallize in lower temperature (350°C) and shorter time (2h) respect to other methods. The sample characterized by various standard techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and UV–Vis spectroscopy.
