Objective: To compare superparamagnetic iron oxide-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with 5-phase computed tomography in the detection and characterisation of focal liver lesions. Patients and Methods: We prospectively performed 5-phase computed tomography scans followed by magnetic resonance imaging of the liver with superparamagnetic iron oxide magnetic resonance contrast medium in patients...

Magnetic particles of iron oxide have been increasingly used in medical diagnosis by magnetic resonance imaging and in cancer therapies involving targeted drug delivery and magnetic hyperthermia. In this study we report the preparation and characterization of iron oxide particles coated with bioceramic hydroxyapatite by spray-drying. The iron oxide magnetic particles (IOMP) were coated with hyd...

background: removing heavy metals from industrial wastewaters by iron nanoparticles has been much noticed in the recent years. chromium is considered as one of the emphasis environmental pollutants. there are high concentrations of chromium in the wastewater of electroplating industries. magnetic iron nanoparticles are used to control and eliminate the heavy metals from industrial effluents thr...

In this paper we study the rheological behaviour (in the absence of magnetic field and upon its application) of multi-component magnetic suspensions that consist of a mixture of magnetic (iron) and non-magnetic (PMMA) particles dispersed in a liquid carrier. These suspensions exhibit considerably higher viscosity and yield stress in the absence of magnetic field than single-component suspension...

Magnetotactic bacteria are a miscellaneous cluster of microorganisms having geomagnetism aided navigation property against applied magnetic field. This oneness is because of the presence of intracellular organelles magnetosomes comprising a membrane-bound crystals of magnetic iron minerals which are formed due to partial reduction of ferric iron in the iron rich environment. It can biomineraliz...

Fe-doped La0.77Sr0.23Mn1 - y Fe y O3 nanoparticles have been synthesized by sol-gel method, and ceramic samples based on them were sintered at 1613 K. Crystallographic and magnetic properties of obtained nanoparticles and ceramic samples have been studied. It has been established that cell volume for nanoparticles increases with growing of iron content, while this dependence displays an opposit...

Barium Titanate BaTiO3 is known for both its electric and magnetic properties. The synthesis and characterization of iron doped barium titanate; BaTi1-xFexO3 (x= 0.005, 0.01, 0.015) was investigated with a view to understand its structural, magnetic and electrical properties. A finest possible sample of Iron doped micro particles of BaTiO3 (BTO) with possible tetragonal structure via a solid-st...

PURPOSE To develop a new shimming calculation method, which can calculate iron piece placements rapidly to make the magnetic field homogeneous at intended homogeneity and then to make the shimming working time short. MATERIALS AND METHODS The shimming calculation yields magnetic moment (MM) distribution, which is calculated by the truncated singular value decomposition (SVD) from the measured...

Horse spleen ferritin (HoSF) reconstituted with small iron cores ranging in size from 8 to 500 iron atoms was studied by magnetic susceptibility and pH measurements to determine when the added Fe3+ begins to aggregate and form antiferromagnetically coupled clusters and also to determine the hydrolytic state of the iron at low iron loading. The Evans NMR magnetic susceptibility measurements show...

One-pot reaction of aldehydes or ketons with aniline derivatives was performed using NaBH4 and Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). The optimum amount of Fe3O4 MNPs was 5 mol% under solvent free condition. The corresponding products were obtained in good to excellent yields. The magnetically recoverable iron oxide nanoparticles are found to be efficient for synthesis of amine derivatives. These...
