INTRODUCTION Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is suitable for noninvasive long-term tracking. We labeled human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural precursors (iPSC-NPs) with two types of iron-based nanoparticles, silica-coated cobalt zinc ferrite nanoparticles (CZF) and poly-l-lysine-coated iron oxide superparamagnetic nanoparticles (PLL-coated γ-Fe2O3) and studied their effect on proli...

The preparation of a fluid of cobalt ferrite particles having a size varying from 2 to 5nm is described. This bas been achieved by using functionalized surfactants. The size of cobalt femte particles decreases when the total reactant concentration decreases. The magnetic properties are described with magnetization curves and "Fe mossbauer spectroscopy. It is demonstrated that these particles ar...

Nanocrystalline cobalt ferrite as a magnetic black pigment was synthesized via coordinated precursors with a significant decrease of the synthesis temperature using citric acid as a coordinating agent. The structure and properties of the cobalt ferrite powder were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), colorimetric analysis (L*a*b* color parameters), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and vibr...

Nanocomposite of CoFe2O4/SrFe12O19 has been synthesized by the electrospinning and calcination process. A novel method that cobalt powder was used to replace traditional cobalt salt in the precursor sol-gel for electrospinning was proposed. The crystal structures, morphologies, and magnetic properties of these samples have been characterized in detail. Moreover, when the average crystallite siz...

The combination of plasmonic material and magnetic metal oxide nanoparticles is widely used in multifunctional nanosystems. Here we propose a method for the fabrication gold/cobalt ferrite nanocomposite biomedical applications. composite includes gold cores ~10 nm diameter coated with arginine, which are surrounded by small cobalt diameters ~5 covered dihydrocaffeic acid. structure elemental co...

A route for fabricating structurally perfect cobalt ferrite magnetic nanostructures is demonstrated. Ultrathin islands of up to 100 μm(2) with atomically flat surfaces and free from antiphase boundaries are developed. The extremely low defect concentration leads to a robust magnetic order, even for thicknesses below 1 nm, and exceptionally large magnetic domains. This approach allows the evalua...

Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) possesses excellent chemical stability, good mechanical hardness and a large positive first order crystalline anisotropy constant, which made this ferrite a promising candidate for magneto-optical recording media. In addition to precise control on the composition and structure of CoFe2O4, the success of its practical application will depend on the capability of controll...

magnetic nanoparticles attracted a great deal of attention in the medical applications due to their unique properties. the most exceptional property of magnetic particles is their response to a magnetic force, and this property has been utilized in applications such as drug targeting, bioseparation, contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and heating mediators for cancer therapy. in...
