Magnetic 8 nm Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized and modified with dopamine (DPA) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) diacid. The water soluble Fe(3)O(4)-DPA-PEG NPs were then conjugated with the fluorescent Eu(iii) complex of tris(dibenzoylmethane)-5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline (BMAP), giving an Fe(3)O(4)-DPA-PEG-BMAP-Eu NP conjugate. The conjugate was both colloidally and chemically stabl...

Iron oxide particles such as magnetite (Fe3O4) or its oxidized form maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) are the most commonly employed in biomedical applications. In this study, we synthesized and optimized the preparation of chitosan manganese-ferrite nanoparticles...

The present work deals in developing new zinc-based composite material for bone repair using a powder metallurgy process. Zinc (Zn), hydroxyapatite (HAp), and iron (Fe) powders were mechanically mixed with ball milling. Subsequently, the mixture was compacted to form green compact. After that, compacts sintered microwave sintering furnace. mechanical electrochemical behaviors of prepared Zn-bas...

We have investigated the cytotoxic assay of Fe-aminoclay (FeAC) nanoparticles (NPs) and simultaneous imaging in HeLa cells by photoluminescent carbon nanodots (CD) conjugation. Non-cytotoxic, photostable, and CD NPs are conjugated with cationic FeAC NPs where CD NPs play a role in bio-imaging and FeAC NPs act as a substrate for CD conjugation and help to uptake of NPs into cancer cells due to p...

Paraoxon is an emerging organophosphate pollutant that commonly used as a pesticide and drug, hence increasing the risk of contamination water supplies. Its intensive use for vector control has led to pollutions in soil water. very toxic, with LD50 2 30 mg/kg rats. It can be metabolized body from parathion; thus, exposure lead serious health effects. In this study, zero valent iron (Fe°/ZVI NPs...

Chemical transformations of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) during wastewater treatment and sludge treatment must be characterized to accurately assess the risks that these nanomaterials pose from land application of biosolids. Here, X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and supporting characterization methods are used to determine the chemical speciation of A...

in this research carbon nanotubes were produced by chemical vapor deposition of acetylene over a mixture of iron and cobalt catalysts supported on nanometric tio2 and the influences of two synthesis parameters: growth temperature and catalyst composition ratio on properties of end-product carbon nanotubes were investigated. the catalytic basis was prepared by wet impregnation method with differ...

Both a Cu-26 wt % Ag (Fe-free) alloy and Cu-26 wt % Ag-0.1 wt % Fe (Fe-doping) alloy were subjected to different heat treatments. We studied the precipitation kinetics of Ag and Cu, microstructure evolution, magnetization, hardness, strength, and electrical resistivity of the two alloys. Fe addition was incapable of changing the precipitation kinetics of Ag and Cu; however, it decreased the siz...

Functionalized Fe nanoparticles (NPs) have played an important role in biomedical applications. In this study, metallic Fe NPs were deposited on SiO2 spheres to form a Fe/SiO2 composite. To protect the Fe from oxidation, a thin SiO2 layer was coated on the Fe/SiO2 spheres thereafter. The size and morphology of the SiO2@Fe/SiO2 composite spheres were examined by transmission electron microscopy ...
