Correlating the Effect of Composition and Textural Properties on Bioactivity for Pristine and Copper-Doped Binary Mesoporous Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles.

Multifunctional substitutes for bone tissue engineering have gained significant interest in recent years in the aim to address the clinical challenge of treating large bone defects resulting from surgical procedures. Sol-gel mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) have emerged as a promising solution due to their high reactivity and versatility. The effect of calcium content on MBGNs textural properties is well known.

Synthesis of Biocompatible Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPION) under Different Microfluidic Regimes.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) have a great potential in both diagnostic and therapeutic applications as they provide contrast in magnetic resonance imaging techniques and allow magnetic hyperthermia and drug delivery. Though various types of SPION are commercially available, efforts to improve the quality of SPION are highly in demand. Here, we describe a strategy for optimization of SPION synthesis under microfluidics using the coprecipitation approach.
