a new method for the separation and preconcentration of trace amounts of cadmium in food and water samples by magnetic solid phase extraction (mspe) with fe3o4 magnetic nanoparticles (fe3o4-mnps) and its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry has been developed. for this purpose, fe3o4-mnps were synthesized via chemical precipitation method. the extraction of cadmium ions from th...

Superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) based nanomaterials have been exploited in various biotechnology fields including biomolecule separation. However, slow accumulation of Fe3O4 NPs by magnets may limit broad applications of Fe3O4 NP-based nanomaterials. In this study, we report fabrication of Fe3O4 NPs double-layered silica nanoparticles (DL MNPs) with a silica core and highly packed F...

Magnetic modification of microbial cells enables to prepare smart biocomposites in bioremediation. In this study, we constructed an efficient biocomposite by assembling Fe3O4 nanoparticles onto the surface of Sphingomonas sp. XLDN2-5 cells. The average particle size of Fe3O4 nanoparticles was about 20 nm with 45.5 emu g-1 saturation magnetization. The morphology of Sphingomonas sp. XLDN2-5 cell...

The effect of maghemization on the magnetic properties of magnetite (Fe3O4) grains in the pseudo-single-domain (PSD) size range is investigated as a function of annealing temperature. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirm the precursor grains as Fe3O4 ranging from 150 to 250 nm in diameter, whilst M€ ossbauer spectrometry suggests the grains are initially near-stoichiom...

Magnetic C-C@Fe3O4 hollow microspheres were prepared by using aerosol-based Fe3O4@C-SiO2 core-shell particles as templates. The magnetic double-shelled microspheres efficiently worked as carriers to load Pt nanoparticles, thus making the catalyst recyclable and reusable.

ω-Transaminase (ω-TA) as a kind of important biocatalyst is widely used in preparation of chiral intermediates.
