Enhancing Analytical Performance of (Mg,Fe)₃O₄/Glassy Carbon Electrodes by Tailoring Chemical Composition of (Mg,Fe)₃O₄ Nanoparticles.

A series of MgFeO₄ ( ═ 0-1) nanoparticles was synthesized in order to prepare novel MgFeO₄/glassy carbon modified electrodes. Effects of magnesium content () on the analytical performance of the modified electrodes in the detection of gallic acid were evaluated. It was found that magnesium concentration and crystallite/particle size of the prepared nanoparticles play significant roles in the sensing properties of modified electrodes.

Complementary approaches for the evaluation of biocompatibility of Y-labeled superparamagnetic citric acid (Fe,Er)O coated nanoparticles.

Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are of immense interest for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in medicine. Design and development of new iron oxide-based MNPs for such applications is of rather limited breadth without reliable and sensitive methods to determine their levels in body tissues. Commonly used methods, such as ICP, are quite problematic, due to the inability to decipher the origin of the detected iron, i.

Synthesis, characterization, cytotoxicity and antiangiogenic activity of copper(II) complexes with 1-adamantoyl hydrazone bearing pyridine rings.

Three novel copper complexes with tridentate N2O ligand di(2-pyridil) ketone 1-adamantoyl hydrazone (Addpy) of the formula [Cu(II)2Cu(I)2(Addpy)2Br2(μ-Br4)] (1), catena-poly[CuCl(μ-Addpy)(μ-Cl)CuCl2]n (2) and [Cu(Addpy)(NCS)2] (3) were synthesized. Complexes are characterized by X-ray crystallography, spectral (UV-Vis, FTIR), electrochemical (CV) analyses, and magnetochemical measurements. Investigation of anticancer potential of Cu(II) complexes, mode of cell death, apoptosis, and inhibition of angiogenesis were performed.

Preparation and in vivo evaluation of multifunctional ⁹⁰Y-labeled magnetic nanoparticles designed for cancer therapy.

Two different types of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized in order to compare their efficiency as radioactive vectors, Fe₃O₄-Naked (80 ± 5 nm) and polyethylene glycol 600 diacid functionalized Fe₃O₄(Fe₃O₄-PEG600) MNPs (46 ± 0.6 nm). They were characterized based on the external morphology, size distribution, and colloidal and magnetic properties.

An integrated study of thermal treatment effects on the microstructure and magnetic properties of Zn-ferrite nanoparticles.

The evolution of the magnetic state, crystal structure and microstructure parameters of nanocrystalline zinc-ferrite, tuned by thermal annealing of ∼4 nm nanoparticles, was systematically studied by complementary characterization methods. Structural analysis of neutron and synchrotron x-ray radiation data revealed a mixed cation distribution in the nanoparticle samples, with the degree of inversion systematically decreasing from 0.25 in an as-prepared nanocrystalline sample to a non-inverted spinel structure with a normal cation distribution in the bulk counterpart.
