This thesis deals with the synthesis, characterisation, and some applications of ferrimagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. The iron oxide systems presented in this work are Fe3O4, γ-Fe2O3, NixFe3−xO4, CoxFe3−xO4. Iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared using chemical synthesis methods. Nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution were synthesised using zone confinement methods such as nanoemulsio...

We have demonstrated the synthesis of γ-Fe2O3 nano-particles through a facile and novel calcination process in the air. There is no pH regulation, gas atmosphere, additive, centrifugation or other complicated procedures during the preparing process. A detailed formation process of the nano-particles is proposed, and DMF as a polar solvent may slower the reaction process of calcination. The stru...

AIM To determine cytotoxicity and effect of silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) on immune response, in particular lymphocyte proliferative activity, phagocytic activity, and leukocyte respiratory burst and in vitro production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and 8 (IL-8), interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF)....

In this study, the thermal conductivity of aqueous nanofluids containing clusters iron oxide (Fe3O4/γ-Fe2O3) nanoparticles has been investigated experimentally for first time, with aim assessing role a controlled aggregation in these final nanofluids. For that, different cluster size (46–240 nm diameter range) were synthesized by solvothermal method and fully characterized transmission electron...

Fluorescent aggregates formed by self-assembly of a hexaphenylbenzene based derivative serve as a reactor and a stabilizer for the formation of ferromagnetic iron oxide (α-Fe2O3) nanoparticles in aqueous medium at room temperature. These α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles showed excellent catalytic activity in palladium, copper and amine free Sonogashira cross coupling reactions and also in photocatalytic d...

This study presents an analysis of a set iron oxides nanoparticles (NPs) (γ-Fe2O3, α-FeOOH, δ-FeOOH, 5Fe2O3·9H2O, and Fe3O4) as potential candidates for ferroptosis therapy in terms phase state, magnetic characteristics, the release Fe2+/Fe3+ ROS mediators. Due to values saturation magnetization Fe3O4 (31.6 emu/g) γ-Fe2O3 (33.8 emu/g), well surface area these particles (130 123 m2/g), it is pos...
