International journal of nanomedicine, 7, 5491-5500 (2012-12-13)
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles coencapsulating gadolinium oxide and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) have been synthesized in the aqueous core of sodium bis-(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT)-hexane-water reverse micelle. The average diameter of these silica particles is around 25 nm and the particles are spherical

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids, 28(1), 774-782 (2011-10-06)
The performance of nanomaterials for biomedical applications is highly dependent on the nature and the quality of surface coatings. In particular, the development of functionalized nanoparticles for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires the grafting of hydrophilic, nonimmunogenic, and biocompatible polymers

Monodisperse Gd(2) O(3) -embedded iron oxide (GdIO) nanoparticles can simultaneously enhance the local magnetic field intensities of each other under an external magnetic field and result in synergistic enhancement of T(1) and T(2) effects. GdIO nanoparticles have the unique property

Bioimaging is an important diagnostic tool in the investigation and visualization of biological phenomena in cells and in medicine. In this context, up-converting Gd(2)O(3):Er(3+),Yb(3+) nanostructures (nanoparticles, nanorods) have been synthesized by precipitation methods and hydrothermal synthesis. Independent of size and

ACS nano, 7(3), 2850-2859 (2013-02-26)
Here, we report the shape-controlled synthesis of tripodal and triangular gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) nanoplates. In the presence of lithium ions, the shape of the nanocrystals is readily controlled by tailoring reaction parameters such as temperature and time. We observe that
