BACKGROUND Magnetic Nanoparticles (MNP) have been used for contrast enhancement in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). In recent years, research on the use of ferrite nanoparticles in T2 contrast agents has shown a great potential application in MR imaging. In this work, Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 and Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4-DMSA magnetic nanoparticles, CZF-MNPs and CZF-MNPs-DMSA, were investigated as MR imaging co...

in this research, the effect of different biopolymers such as polyethylene glycol (peg) and polyvinylalcohol (pva) on synthesis and characterization of polymer/cobalt ferrite (cf) nano-composites bymechanical alloying method has been systematically investigated. the structural, morphological andmagnetic properties changes during mechanical milling were investigated by x-ray diffraction (xrd),fo...

We identify contributions to the valence band of the nanosized BaFe12−2xCoxTixO19 barium ferrite particles, from the cobalt and titanium dopants. Resonant photoemission results show that cobalt and titanium dopants strongly hybridize with the barium ferrite matrix. Fano resonances are identifi ed in the valence band region, at the Ba (5s), Ti (3p) and Co (3p) thresholds, and there are signifi c...

The variations in the structural magnetic properties of cobalt ferrite due to Ti4+/Co2+ co-substitution for 2Fe3+ are presented. The non-linear relation in the variation of the lattice parameter agrees with a previous study on cation distribution, which showed that the rate of substitution of cations into the A-sites and B-sites varies with Ti-concentration. Such variation in the rate of substi...

Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) are a special type of NP with a ferromagnetic, electron-dense core that enables several applications such as cell tracking, hyperthermia, and magnetic separation, as well as multimodality. So far, superparamagnetic iron oxide NPs (SPIONs) are the only clinically approved type of metal oxide NPs, but cobalt ferrite NPs have properties suitable for biomedical applicat...

Particles of Cobalt ferrite, CoFe2O4-, were coated with polyaniline (PANI) sulphate and phosphate during in-situ polymerization of aniline in an aqueous solution of sulfuric and phosphoric acid. The PANI-ferrite composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Structures and morphology of products were studied by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Micr...
