Magnetic Nanotubes as Magnetic Resonance Contrast Agents

Synthesis, Characterization, Cytotoxicity and Cellular Uptake

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

An increasing interest in medical application of
nanotechnology has heightened the need for synthesis
of nanoparticles with well-defined dimensions and
multifunctionalities. Based on template synthesis
method, magnetic nanotubes (MNT) were successfully
prepared with precise morphology control. The MNTs
have super magnetic properties, including high
saturation magnetization and magnetic resonance
relaxivities. Cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of
SNTs were investigated for primary and cancer cells.
The nanotubes showed limited toxicity which was
concentration-, surface charge-, and length-
dependent. The internalization was confirmed with
both confocal microscopy and TEM studies. These
studies were directed by Professor Sang Bok Lee.
