Ahstract--Mn-substituted iron oxides were synthesized by coprecipitating Fe(NO3)3 and Mn(SO4) solutions with NH4OH, adjusting the suspensions to pH 4 or 6, and then keeping the suspensions at 55~ for 62 days. The Mn mole fraction of the final products ranged from 0 to 0.3. X-ray powder diffraction patterns showed that goethite and hematite formed in each Fe-containing system. Groutite formed in...

BACKGROUND Accumulating evidence indicates that iron oxide nanoparticles modulate immune responses, and induce oxidative stress in macrophages. It was recently reported that iron oxide nanoparticles attenuated antigen-specific immunity in vivo, though the underlying mechanism remains elusive. The present study investigates the direct effect of iron oxide nanoparticles on antigen-specific cytoki...

nano-encapsulated iron oxide in zirconium oxide-coated mica pigments are thermally stable,innocuous to human health, non-combustible, and they do not conduct electricity. they could beapplied in several industries such as thermoplastics, cosmetics, food packaging, children toys, paints,automobiles coating, security purposes, and banknotes. nowadays, they are highly desirable inceramic decoratio...

Introduction: With the increasing development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials are used instead of conventional compounds. One of these nanomaterials that have many applications in the biomedical field, is iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles and there is not much research on its effects on the physiological features. So in this research, effect of iron oxide nanoparticles on short and long-term...

Aluminium powder is of major interest in many applications but it presents a risk due to its high explosibility, particularly when dispersed in air. The safety is directly linked to the particles oxidation because the Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE), which is required to initiate an Al dust explosion, increases with the oxide layer thickness. This study provides a controlled method to furnish rep...

The drinking water from a small drinking water system contained arsenic in a concentration of about 50 μg/L. Chemical analyses showed that the pentavalent form of arsenic was present. Since the MCL value is 10 μg/L, it was necessary to implement a technological treatment to make the water suitable for drinking. In order to do so, two technologies were suggested: activated alumina and α-FeOOH (T...

the effects of confinement in carbon nanotubes on fischer-tropsch (ft) activity, selectivity and lifetime of carbon nanotubes (cnts) supported iron catalysts are reported. a method was developed to control the position of the catalytic sites on either inner or outer surface of carbon nanotubes. tem analyses revealed that more than 80% of iron oxide particles can be controlled to be positioned a...

Background and Aims: Iron oxide nanoparticles are among the most effective tools which can replace current medical techniques for diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. Hepatitis C infection is one of the main health problems in the world, affecting around 3% of the world's population. This infection can develop into liver cirrhosis and liver cancer over the time in 80% of patients. In t...

In recent years, research on the use of magnetic nanomaterials in biomedicine, especially hyperthermia treatment tumors, has been developing rapidly. The basic principle tumor heat therapy is to bring powder together with other drugs site and, when exposed a high-frequency alternating field, particles release and stop growth cells. Magnetic materials ability are ferrimagnetic properties.This ar...

Uniquely structured FeSe(x)-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite powders, in which hollow FeSe(x) nanoparticles are uniformly distributed throughout the rGO matrix, were prepared by spray pyrolysis applying the nanoscale Kirkendall diffusion process. Iron oxide-rGO composite powders were transformed into FeSe(x)-rGO composite powders by a two-step post-treatment process. Metallic Fe nanocryst...
