To prepare Fe(3)O(4)-magnetic nanoparticles loaded with adriamycin and investigate the reversal role of drug-loaded nanoparticles in K562 and resistant cell line K562/A02, the drug-loaded nanoparticles were prepared by using mechanical absorption polymerization at different conditions of 4 degrees C or 37 degrees C for 24 or 48 hours. The survival of cells cultured with drug-loaded nanoparticles for 48 hours was detected by MTT assay, then the growth inhibition efficacy of cells was calculated. The results showed that the growth inhibition efficacy of both two cell lines was enhanced with increasing concentration of Fe(3)O(4)-magnetic nanoparticles. The inhibitory ratio of two cell lines obtained at 4 degrees C and for 48 hours was significantly better than that at 37 degrees C and 24 hours. In conclusion, Fe(3)O(4)-magnetic nanoparticles can load adriamycin by using mechanical absorption polymerization, but depended on proper temperature and time. Furthermore, drug-loaded nanoparticles showed an ability reversing multidrug resistance.

Contaminated water has remained an unsolved problem for decades, particularly when the contamination derived from heavy metals. A possible solution is to mix the contaminated water with magnetic nanoparticles so that an adsorption process can take place. In that frame, Tesla valve micromixer and Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were selected to perform simulations for encounter maximum mixing efficiency.

A simple and sensitive method for Cu detection was developed using the Cu-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition reaction, FeO magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as the reaction platform, and a portable blood glucose meter (PGM) as the detection method. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were labeled with glucose oxidase (GOx) and alkyne-functionalized, terminally thiolated ssDNA (C2). In the presence of Cu and ascorbate, the functionalized AuNPs were captured onto MNPs modified with azide-functionalized ssDNA (C1) via the Cu-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition reaction.

The overexpression of interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is closely associated with the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases and cancer, rendering precise identification of IL-17A level critical for disease diagnosis and prognosis monitoring. In this study, CsPbBr nanoclusters (NCs) were embedded in CHBrOPb organometallic compound (Pb-MA MOC) via a hot injection approach. Through this way, the issue of CsPbBr NCs susceptible to decomposition in water was solved, and the photocurrent intensity that is generated by CsPbBr was significantly enhanced.

An aptamer sensor has been developed utilizing a dual-mode and stimuli-responsive strategy for quantitative detection of AβO (amyloid-beta oligomers) through simultaneous electrochemical and fluorescence detection. To achieve this, we employed UIO-66-NH as a carrier container to load MB (Methylene Blue), and FeO MNPs (iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles) with aptamer (ssDNA-FeO MNPs) fixed on their surface for biological gating. The ssDNA-FeO MNPs were immobilized onto the surface of UIO-66-NH through hydrogen bonding between the aptamer and the -NH group on the surface of UIO-66-NH, thereby encapsulating MB and forming ssDNA-FeO@MB@UIO-66-NH.

The AC magnetic properties of a sample of FeO nanoparticles coated with oleic acid have been investigated with the help of AC susceptibility measurements. In particular, several DC magnetic fields have been superimposed on the AC field, and their effect on the magnetic response of the sample has been analysed. The results show the presence of a double peak structure in the imaginary component of the complex AC susceptibility measured as a function of the temperature.
