Thermally responsive lipid coated superparamagnetic nanoparticles for frequency triggered drug delivery

Patil-Sen Y., Eizadi Sharifabad M., Mercer T., Bond G., Patil-Sen Y., Sen T., University of Central Lancashire, UK

In this abstract, we report a series of novel thermally responsive lipid coated core-shell mesoporous silica-superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles as drug delivery vehicles for potential use for cancer therapy under magnetic hyperthermia. Hydrophilic anticancer drug [...]

Hybrid silica-coated palsmonic-magnetic biomarkers

Sotiriou G.A., Hirt A.M., Lozach P-Y., Teleki A., Krumeich F., Pratsinis S.E., Particle Technology Laboratory, ETH Zürich, CH

In this study, hybrid silica-coated plasmonic-magnetic nanoparticles have been synthesized in one-step by a scalable flame aerosol technology. The effect of the silica in the stability of the nanoparticles, as well as their biocompatibility are [...]

Process Intensification Strategies for the Synthesis of Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles and Fabrication of Nano-Hybrid

Chin S.F., Iyer K.S., Raston C.L., Saunders M., Miss, AU

Superparamagnetic magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles are important for a diverse range of applications such as, magnetic resonance imaging, targeted drug delivery and magnetic separation. The most common cost effective and convenient way to synthesize Fe3O4 nanoparticles [...]

Synthesis and Characterization of Magnetorheological Fluids with Super Paramagnetic Nanomaterials in Polymeric Matrix

Kancharla V., Fahmi A., Liu Q., Gindy N., University of Nottingham, UK

Magneto-rheological (MR) fluids represent an exciting family of smart materials that have the unique ability to undergo rapid (within a few µs) changes in their apparent viscosity on the application of an external magnetic field. [...]
