Silver doped zinc oxide nanoparticles are synthesized by a solution combustion method. The samples characterized by a variety of spectroscopic and other techniques clearly reveal the presence of silver nanoparticles as well as silver clusters. The silver in the two forms was identified by careful deconvolution of X-ray photoelectron spectral results. Their formation was also confirmed by the pr...

in this report, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized via coprecipitation of fe2+ and fe3+ with ammonium hydroxide, and the surface of synthesized nanoparticles was organically functionalized by commercially available amine coupling agent namely, 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (apts) by using well-known sol–gel method. further reaction of the synthesized fe3o4@apts core-shell magne...

in this work, we report on the synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles at room temperature using microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, ctab as cationic surfactant and butanol as a cosurfactant. surface modification have been carried out by using poly(ethyleneglycol) (peg). the structure,morphology, and magnetic properties of the products were characteriz...

Introduction: Iron plays an important role in physiological processes as a trace element. Today, iron oxide nanoparticles have attracted extensive attention due to their super paramagnetic properties and a variety of potential applications in many fields. The main objective of this study was to evaluate in vitro and in vivo toxic effects of the iron oxide nanoparticles on L929 cell line, kid...

This work reports on the structural evolution during room temperature synthesis of hexagonally ordered mesoporous silica nanoparticles with and without embedded iron oxide particles. Oleic acidcapped iron oxide nanoparticles are synthesized and transferred to an aqueous phase using the cationic surfactant, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). MCM-41 type silica and composite nanoparticles...

In this study bio-hydrogen and bioethanol were produced from dry biomass of water hyacinth by microbial fermentation under influence of zinc oxide nanoparticles. For fermentative bio-hydrogen production biomass was first pretreated and then saccharified into fermentable sugars by enzymes. Sugars of enzymatic hydrolysis were xylose and glucose with concentration of 9.0% and 8.0% respectively. Fo...

in recent years, the scientists have focused on nanotecnology and its applications as the most important fields of research and development. the use of nanoparticles offers many advantages, due to their unique size and physical properties. magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have been used in many fields, because of their unique properties such as large specific surface area and convenient separa...

the special application of iron-manganese oxide nanocatalysts has been investigated in decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. in this research, iron-manganese oxide nanocomposites were synthesized by co-precipitation, sol-gel and mechanochemical methods using iron (iii) nitrate, iron (ii) sulfate and manganese (ii) nitrate as starting materials. these nanocomposites were prepared on the various ca...

BACKGROUND It was recently reported that iron oxide nanoparticles attenuated antigen-specific humoral responses and T cell cytokine expression in ovalbumin-sensitized mice. It is presently unclear whether iron oxide nanoparticles influence T helper 1 cell-mediated immunity. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of iron oxide nanoparticles on delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH), whos...
