Growth, development and plants productivity are usually affected by photosynthetic pigments activity. Magnetic fields are known to induce biochemical changes and could be used as a stimulator for growth related reactions including affecting photosynthetic pigments. The impact of magnetic field strengths on chlorophyll and carotenoids were investigated in this study through the use of date palm ...

Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) fabricated by two step anodization technique, is used as a template to synthesize FeCo nanowire arrays by AC electrodeposition technique. Response surface methodology (RSM) is applied to design the experiments, fit an empirical model and optimize the conditions to achieve the best magnetic properties. The magnetic properties, pore dimensions, composition and structur...

A cyano-bridged ferromagnetic {Fe(III)Ni(II)} alternating chain {[Fe(pzTp)(CN)3][Ni(chxn)2]}·ClO4·H2O (1) (pzTp = tetrakis(pyrazolyl)borate, chxn = (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane) was synthesized via rational design. Crystal structure analysis and magnetic studies demonstrated that compound had a one-dimensional zigzagging chain-like structure and slow magnetic relaxation.

An extremely low frequency alternating magnetic field (ELF-AMF) was demonstrated to be able to effectively trigger drug release from carefully engineered magnetic ZIF-90 nanoparticles. The embedded Fe3O4 nanoparticles or alternatively Gd2O3 nanoparticles serve as effective MRI tracers for potential visualization of drug delivery to ensure drug delivery accuracy.

One of the most challenging goals in pharmacological research is overcoming the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) to deliver drugs to the Central Nervous System (CNS). The use of physical means, such as steady and alternating magnetic fields to drive nanocarriers with proper magnetic characteristics may prove to be a useful strategy. The present review aims at providing an up-to-date picture of the app...

magnetic nanoparticles can bind to different drug delivery systems and can be used for drug targeting to a specific organ by using an external magnetic field as well as used in hyperthermia by heating in alternating magnetic fields. the characteristics of iron oxide nanoparticles are significantly affected by particle size, shape and zeta potential, among which the particle size plays the most ...
