In the present study green synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles has been described. Green tea was used in the synthesis of these nanoparticles due to its reducing property. The surface of green ...

This figure illustrates the ease with which grams of many different types of oxide nanoparticles can be prepared in a single step. The first row of sample vials shows the initial salt solutions of the ...

Magnetic navigation of magnetotactic bacterial and the magnetosome chains. (Image: MA Kun) Targeted delivery of anti-tumor drugs can effectively improve the efficacy and minimize the toxicity of drugs ...

Magnetic particle imaging is a novel imaging technique that allows for quantitative direct imaging of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs). These advanced nanoparticles have shown great ...

Fe2O3 nanoparticles and melamine dendrimers, creating a stable, pH-responsive platform for effective doxorubicin delivery in ...

Imagine a tiny vehicle with a nanomagnetic structure, which can be steered through the human body via external magnetic fields. Arrived at its destination, the vehicle may release a drug, or heat up ...

A new “smart rust” could one day help pull pollutants out of waterways, leaving cleaner water behind. Researchers adorned tiny particles of iron oxide, better known as rust, with “sticky” molecules ...

We are constantly immersed in magnetic fields. The Earth produces a field that envelops us. Toasters, microwaves, and all of our other appliances produce their own faint ones. All of these fields are ...

Researchers have developed a magnetic nanomaterial that can kill bone cancer cells and support bone regeneration at the same time. The material heats up under a magnetic field to destroy tumors, while ...

Immune system cells can be engineered outside of the body in a type of therapy called CAR-T. Now, Johns Hopkins scientists are developing ways to sidestep such cell manufacturing with a biodegradable ...
