Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation method using ammonia as precipitation agent. Most researchers usually add ammonia into the iron salt solution but in this work the salt solution drop wise has been added to the ammonia and the new obtained results were compared with those of other researches. Magnetic properties of nanoparticles were measured by VSM. The effect of rea...

To utilize iron oxide nanoparticles in biomedical applications, a sufficient magnetic moment is crucial. Since this magnetic moment is directly proportional to the size of the superparamagnetic nanoparticles, synthesis methods of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with tunable size are desirable. However, most existing protocols are plagued by several drawbacks. Presented here is a one-...

in this study, we synthesized herceptin conjugated magnetic nanoparticles (hmns) as an alternative probe to discover the levels of her2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor-2) in the surface of cells. these nanoparticles can be used by magnetic resonance imaging (mri) (non-invasive methods) for screening the patients with her2 positive or negative tumors. dextran coated iron oxide nanopartic...

results the maximum si was obtained at the highest applied flip angle (45°). the linear relationship between si and nanoparticle concentration was seen up to 112.21 and 98.83 μmol fe/l for the short (10°) and the long (45°) flip angles, respectively (r2 = 0.95). these values were reduced up to 48.54 and 42.73 μmol fe/l for these flip angles with r2 of 0.99. conclusions the maximum si will be in...

background: increased impervious surfaces in urban areas not only increase runoff volume and peak flow, but also worsen urban storm water pollution. the polluted runoff has many adverse impacts on human life and environment. the purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the efficiency of sand columns coated with nanoparticles of iron oxide in the presence and absence of a magnetic fi...

We present an interdisciplinary overview of material engineering and emerging applications of iron oxide nanoparticles. We discuss material engineering of nanoparticles in the broadest sense, emphasizing size and shape control, large-area self-assembly, composite/hybrid structures, and surface engineering. This is followed by a discussion of several non-traditional, emerging applications of iro...

background: removing heavy metals from industrial wastewaters by iron nanoparticles has been much noticed in the recent years. chromium is considered as one of the emphasis environmental pollutants. there are high concentrations of chromium in the wastewater of electroplating industries. magnetic iron nanoparticles are used to control and eliminate the heavy metals from industrial effluents thr...

in this work, we report synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles at room temperature using microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide ctab as cationic surfactant and butanol as a cosurfactant. silica surface modification of the as prepared nanoparticles was performed by adding tetraethoxysilane teos to alkaline medium. the struct...

Pilot experiments were performed. Microwave induced plasma decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl has been used to prepare iron nanosized particles. Vapours of iron pantacarbonyl have been introduced into argon surfaguide discharge, optical emission spectra have been taken and rotational temperatures obtained. The rotational temperatures remain practically constant during the increasing of the Fe(...
