Herein we examined the toxicity, penetration properties and ability of Fe2O3·nH2O magnetic nanoparticles extracted from silt of the Borovoye Lake (Krasnoyarsk, Russia) to bind an antibiotic. Experimental studies were carried out using magnetic nanoparticles alone and after antibiotic exposure in tissue samples from nasal mucosa, cartilage and bone (in vitro). Toxicity of particles was studied i...

Since magnetic particles have unique features, the development of a variety of medical applications has been possible. The most unique feature of magnetic particles is their reaction to a magnetic force, and this feature has been utilized in applications such as drug targeting and bioseparation including cell sorting. Recently, magnetic nanoparticles have attracted attention because of their po...

Chemically synthesized superparamagnetic nanoparticles are widely used in biology and medicine for applications that include biomolecule purifications and cell separations, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents, and biomagnetic sensing.

Magnetic micro and nanoparticles are increasingly used in biotechnological applications due to the ability to control their behavior through an externally applied field. We demonstrate the fabrication of particles made from ultrathin perpendicularly magnetized CoFeB/Pt layers with antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling. The particles are characterized by zero moment at remanence, low susceptibil...

By gentle annealing, 7 nm cobalt nanoparticles synthesized by soft chemistry, are transformed to hard magnetic hexagonal close packed (HCP) cobalt nanocrystals without changing the size, size distribution and passivating layer. This method permits to recover the nanocrystals isolated in solution after the annealing process and then to study the magnetic properties of the HCP cobalt nanocrystals...
