The lead ferrite (PbFe12O19) nanoparticles were prepared by a simple and short time microwave method. Lead nitrate, iron nitrate nine hydrate, surfactants, and ethylene glycol were used as precursor materials. The effect of surfactants on the morphology and particle size of the magnetic products was investigated. The prepared magnetic products were studied by X-ray diffraction, scanning electro...

aims: arsenic contamination of natural water resources has become an important environmental problem in the world. the adsorption method by iron filings adsorbent or zero-valent iron was used. the study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of iron filings in arsenite removal from polluted water and to investigate the effect of magnetic field on the process. materials & methods: this interventional ...

in order to compare effect of magnetic field and frigate surfactant to enhance the efficacy of iodosulfuron-methyl-sodium plus mesosulfuron-methyl (chevalier) to control wild oat, a greenhouse experiment of dose-response was conducted. treatments were 0, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 doses g a.i. ha-1 of chevalier (i) without treatment, (ii) with frigate % 0.1 v/v, (iii) with magnetic field, and (iv) fri...

in this study, the effects of strength and direction of the magnetic field on lid-driven cavity flow in the whole range of magnetic field strength variations, which already used in practice up to present (0 to 10 tesla), are studied. the governing equations, including conservative equations of momentum, continuity and magnetic field equations were solved numerically. momentum and continuity equ...

We report studies of novel self-assembled magnetic surface swimmers (magnetic snakes) formed from a dispersion of magnetic microparticles at a liquid-air interface and energized by an alternating magnetic field. We show that under certain conditions the snakes spontaneously break the symmetry of surface flows and turn into self-propelled objects. Parameters of the driving magnetic field tune th...

Nonlinear dynamics of the magnetic vortex state in a circular nanodisk was studied under a perpendicular alternating magnetic field that excites the radial modes of the magnetic resonance. Here, we show that as the oscillating frequency is swept down from a frequency higher than the eigenfrequency, the amplitude of the radial mode is almost doubled to the amplitude at the fixed resonance freque...

Magnetic nanoparticles that are currently explored for various biomedical applications exhibit a high propensity to minimize total surface energy through aggregation. This study introduces a unique, thermoresponsive nanocomposite design demonstrating substantial colloidal stability of superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (SPIONs) due to a surface-immobilized lipid layer. Lipid coating was acco...

background: hydatidosis it is a zoonotic disease which is caused by the larval stages of different species of the tapeworms (cestoda) of genus echinococcus. currently, the surgery is most definitive method of treatment for hydatid cyst, but always there is the risk of leakage or rupture during the surgery, therefore it is considered unreliable method. methods: protoscoleces of hydatid cysts wer...

In this paper, we show that magnetic nanowires with weak magnetic fields and low frequencies can induce cell death via a mechanism that does not involve heat production. We incubated colon cancer cells with two concentrations (2.4 and 12 μg/mL) of nickel nanowires that were 35 nm in diameter and exposed the cells and nanowires to an alternating magnetic field (0.5 mT and 1 Hz or 1 kHz) for 10 o...

Magnetic fluids are increasingly used for clinical applications such as drug delivery, magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic fluid hyperthermia. The latter technique that has been developed as a cancer treatment for several decades comprises the injection of magnetic nanoparticles into tumors and their subsequent heating in an alternating magnetic field. Depending on the applied temperature a...
