a novel magnetic mixed hemimicell solid phase extraction (mmhspe) technique for speciation analysis of soluble, ferrous and ferric iron in legumes sample by flame atomic absorption spectrometry analysis (faas) was developed. mmhspe system consisting of alumina-coated magnetite nanoparticles (fe3o4/al2o3nps) modified by sodium dodecylsulfate-1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (sds-pan) have been succes...

Magnetic nanoparticles made of magnetite have the advantage to be biocompatible and to have a good saturation magnetisation. In this work we show that magnetite nanoparticles change their magnetic and chemical characteristics over time, depending on their storage conditions. To determine the oxidation state of the iron in the core of the nanoparticles Mössbauer spectroscopy was used at 4.2 K. T...

Silica  coated magnetite  nanoparticles were  covalent  grafted with  3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane  to give APTSCMNPs. Reaction of  the resulted nanomaterial with 4-formyl benzo-12-crown-4 ether afforded FB12C4/APTSMNPs  nanocomposite  material  in  which  the  crown ether  moiety  was  attached  through  propyl  chain  spacer. Characterization of  the prepared nanocomposite was performed wit...

Amphipathic polymer pullulan acetate (PA)-coated magnetic nanoparticles were prepared and characterized by various physicochemical means. The cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of the magnetic nanoparticles were examined. The hyperthermic effect of the magnetic nanoparticles on tumor cells was evaluated. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the PA coated magnetic nanoparticles (PAMN...

Development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents that can be readily applied for imaging of biological tissues under clinical settings is a challenging task. This is predominantly due to the expectation of an ideal MR agent being able to be synthesized in large quantities, possessing longer shelf life, reasonable biocompatibility, tolerance against its aggregation in biological f...

Recent progress in nanotechnology and electrochemical methods can be applied to fine control of the size, crystal structure, and surface properties of iron oxide nanoparticles. Here we appliedcathodic electrochemical deposition (CED) as an efficient and effective tactic for synthesisand double coating of surface of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs). In first step, bare Fe3O4 n...

BACKGROUND Magnetic nanoparticles in a variable magnetic field are able to produce heat. This heat (42-45°C) has more selective effect on fast dividing cancer cells than normal tissues. METHODS In this work magnetite nanoparticles have been prepared via co-precipitation and phase identification was performed by powder x-ray diffraction (XRD). Magnetic parameters of the prepared nanoparticles ...

New chiral magnetite nanoparticles with a polymerizable group produced polymer composite films on an electrode surface and the hybrid nanotubes of magnetite nanoparticles and polythiophene from their template-based electropolymerization.
