Preparation of iron salts Fe + 3 Fe+2 This study aims to prepare super-magnetic nanoparticles coated with chitosan-CS SPIONs in an easy and inexpensive chemical way, which is the method co-precipitation mediated aqueous solution mixing it a chitosan CS dissolved dilute citric acid 1 % precipitation this mixture NaOH sodium citrate as surfactant inside closed system using inert atmosphere for ni...

Laser-evaporated iron was deposited onto solid oxygen at 20 K to produce stratified samples consisting of Fe and 02 layers. The Mossbauer spectra of these samples were acquired in order too investigate their oxidation states and chemical properties. The reaction produced the trivalent iron oxide particles whose size varied depending on the amount of Fe atoms deposited on the solid oxygen. Sampl...

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...

While current imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography, and positron emission tomography, play an important role in detecting tumors in the body, no single-modality imaging possesses all the functions needed for a complete diagnostic imaging, such as spatial resolution, signal sensitivity, and tissue penetration depth. For this reason, multimodal imaging...

The relaxation rates of iron-oxide nanoparticles compartmentalized within cells were studied and found to satisfy predictions of the static dephasing (SD) regime theory. THP-1 cells in cell culture were loaded using two different iron-oxide nanoparticles (superparamagnetic iron-oxide (SPIO) and ultrasmall SPIO (USPIO)) with four different iron concentrations (0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mg/ml) and ...

in this study, a mixed matrix polyethersulfone/iron-nickel oxide nanoparticle nanofiltration membrane was prepared by the solution casting technique. polyvinylpyrrolidone was also used as a membrane pore former in membrane fabrication. the effect of iron-nickel oxide nanoparticles concentration in the casting solution on the membrane structure and performance was investigated. scanning optical ...

Zinc and iron nano-oxides (100 ppb) were promoted the hypericin and hyperforin production in Hypericum perforatum cell suspension culture. High performance liquid chromatography method was used for detectection and identification of hypericin and hyperforin in H. perfuratum cell suspension cultures elicited with different concentrations of zinc and iron nano-oxide (0, 50, 100 and 150 ppb) after...

objective(s): to improve water stability of electrospun chitosan/ polyethylene oxide (peo) nanofibers, genipin, a biocompatible and nontoxic agent, was used to crosslink chitosan based nanofibers.  materials and methods: different amounts of genipin were added to the chitosan/peo solutions, chitosan/peo weight ratio 90/10 in 80 % acetic acid, and the solutions were then electrospun to form nano...

The strong catalytic performance, eco-friendly reaction systems, and selectivity of enzyme-based biocatalysts are extremely interesting. Immobilization has been shown to be a good way improve enzyme stability recyclability. Chitosan-incorporated metal oxides, among other support matrices, an intriguing class matrices for the immobilization various enzymes. Herein, cross-linked chitosan/zinc oxi...
