Targeted Contrast Agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Possibilities and Limitations
Introduction: Active targeting of contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaiinghas been &died by several investigators over the last years (1,2). The methods used include targeting via antibodies and receptors. Most of these studies have however been performed at non-clinical high field-strengths using highresolution imaging in anesthetised animals. The ability to detect the contrast enhancing...
متن کاملThe Potential and Limitations of Self-Targeted Food Subsidies
Can self-selection of subsidized commodities be used as a mechanism to transfer income to the poor? Evidence from two self-targeting programs, one in South Africa and one in Tunisia, shows that although self-targeting can clearly improve the distribution of food subsidies to the poorest members of society, its power to alleviate poverty and reduce income disparities is limited by preference pat...
متن کاملPotential and limitations of nuclear magnetic resonance for the cardiologist.
One of the fundamental problems in cardiovascular research is concerned with the relation between biochemical energy provision and demand of the myocardium in healthy and diseased states. Until recently most of the available biochemical information was a result of indirect or highly invasive measurements. During the past nine years we have shown that nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a...
متن کاملComposite Chitosan/Agarose Ferrogels for Potential Applications in Magnetic Hyperthermia
Composite ferrogels were obtained by encapsulation of magnetic nanoparticles at two different concentrations (2.0 and 5.0 % w/v) within mixed agarose/chitosan hydrogels having different concentrations of agarose (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0% (w/v)) and a fixed concentration of chitosan (0.5% (w/v)). The morphological characterization carried out by scanning electron microscopy showed that dried composite ...
متن کاملTargeted hyperthermia using magnetite cationic liposomes and an alternating magnetic field in a mouse osteosarcoma model.
We undertook a study of the anti-tumour effects of hyperthermia, delivered via magnetite cationic liposomes (MCLs), on local tumours and lung metastases in a mouse model of osteosarcoma. MCLs were injected into subcutaneous osteosarcomas (LM8) and subjected to an alternating magnetic field which induced a heating effect in MCLs. A control group of mice with tumours received MCLs but were not ex...
