Hollandite-type α-MnO exhibits exceptional promise in current industrial applications and in advancing next-generation green energy technologies, such as multivalent (Mg, Ca, and Zn) ion battery cathodes and aerobic oxidation catalysts. Considering the slow diffusion of multivalent cations within α-MnO tunnels and the catalytic activity at edge surfaces, ultrasmall α-MnO particles with a lower aspect ratio are expected to unlock the full potential. In this study, ultrasmall α-MnO (<10 nm) with a low aspect ratio (c/a ≈ 2) is synthesized using a newly developed alcohol solution process.

In this study, polypeptide TGGGPLGVARGKGGC-induced chiral manganese dioxide supraparticles (MnO SPs) are prepared for sensitive quantification of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in vitro and in vivo. The results show that L-type manganese dioxide supraparticles (L-MnO SPs) exhibited twice the affinity for the cancer cell membrane receptor CD47 (cluster of differentiation, integrin-associated protein) than D-type manganese dioxide supraparticles (D-MnO SPs) to accumulate at the tumor site after surface modification of the internalizing arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (iRGD) ligand, specifically reacting with the MMP-9, disassembling into ultrasmall nanoparticles (NPs), and efficiently underwent renal clearance. Furthermore, L-MnO facilitates the quantification of MMP-9 in mouse tumor xenografts, as demonstrated by circular dichroism (CD) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) within 2 h.

In this work, we are showing the results of the X- and Q-band electron magnetic resonance measurements of ultra-small ZnMnFeO nanoparticles ( 8 nm) with a very narrow size distribution. The chosen synthetic route allows for precise structural modifications with a broad concentration range ( = 0, 0.2, 0.

Early diagnosis of liver cancer and appropriate treatment options are critical for obtaining a good prognosis. However, due to technical limitations, it is difficult to make an early and accurate diagnosis of liver cancer, and the traditional imaging model is relatively simple. Therefore, we synthesized multifunctional diagnostic/therapeutic nanoparticles, UMFNPs/Ce6@MBs, loaded with ultra-small manganese ferrite nanoparticles (UMFNPs) and chlorin e6 (Ce6).
