Magnetite (Fe304) nanoparticles stabilised by sulfonatocalixarene macrocycles are readily accessible by a rapid in situ co-precipitation, and exhibit ferro-fluidic and superparamagnetic behaviour.

Maghemite particles are used as T₂ contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging, especially for molecular and cellular imaging. Linear clusters of particles - called nanoworms - were recently developed to enhance the targeting efficiency. In this work, the magnetic and NMR relaxation properties of these nanoworms are studied at multiple magnetic fields. After the usual saturation at 0.5 T, th...

Superparamagnetic Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles were successfully grafted onto the manganese oxide OMS-2 nanowires, and the synthesized material exhibits excellent magnetic separation and adsorption properties.

The surface of superparamagnetic magnetic beads was modified with bisphosphonates to selectively capture calcium phosphate crystals from complex biological fluids (i.e. synovial fluid).

Background: The emergence of two-dimensional MXenes has spurred their versatile applications in broad fields, but the exploring of novel MXene-based family members and their potential applications in theranostic nanomedicine (concurrent diagnostic imaging and therapy) have been rarely explored. In this work, we report the construction of a novel superparamagnetic MXene-based theranostic nanopla...
