An NMR-relaxation study of the effect of albumin on aggregation of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles

The dependence of the aggregation of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles in aqueous suspensions under the action of human serum albumin is analyzed based on the data of proton magnetic relaxation. It is shown that albumin adsorption on magnetic nanoparticles gives rise to the formation of a protein corona and clusters of magnetic nanoparticles, decreasing the aggregation stability of the suspension in a 7.1-T magnetic field. Clustering of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles enhances the relaxation efficiency of magnetic suspensions during NMR measurements.     

Different methods for the fractionation of magnetic fluids

 Magnetic fluids are used in many fields of application, such as material separation and biomedicine. Magnetic fluids consist of magnetic nanoparticles, which commonly display a broad distribution of magnetic and nonmagnetic parameters. Therefore, upon application only a small number of particles contribute to the desired magnetic effect. In order to optimize magnetic fluids for applications preference is given to methods that separate magnetic nanoparticles according to their magnetic properties. Hence, a magnetic method was developed for the fractionation of magnetic fluids. Familiar size-exclusion chromatography of two different magnetic fluids was carried out for comparison. The fractions obtained and the original samples were also magnetically characterized by magnetic resonance and magnetorelaxometry, two biomedical applications. The size-exclusion fractions are similar to those of magnetic fractionation, despite the different separation mechanisms. In this respect, magnetic fractionation has several advantages in practical use over size-exclusion chromatography: the magnetic method is faster and has a higher capacity. The fractions obtained by both methods show distinctly different magnetic properties compared to the original samples and are therefore especially suited for applications such as magnetorelaxometry.

Enhancement of magnetic resonance contrast effect using ionic magnetic clusters

Precise diagnosis by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires sensitive magnetic resonance probes to detect low concentrations of magnetic substances. Ionic magnetic clusters (IMCs) as versatile magnetic probes were successfully synthesized for enhancing the magnetic resonance (MR) contrast effect as well as ensuring high water solubility. IMCs with various sizes were prepared by assembly of MNCs using cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). To synthesize IMCs in the aqueous phase, magnetic nanocrystals in an organic solvent were assembled with CTAB and SDS using the nanoemulsion method, to fabricate cationic magnetic clusters (CMCs) and anionic magnetic clusters (AMCs), respectively. IMCs demonstrated ultrasensitivity by MR imaging and sufficient magnetic mobility under an external magnetic field.     

Effects of structural transformations in magnetic emulsions

Structural transformations and relevant changes in the magnetic and optical properties of magnetosensitive emulsions based on magnetic fluids are experimentally studied. Peculiarities of the changes in the magnetic susceptibility of emulsions associated with the deformation of their microdroplets and the effect of phase inversion (the transformation of dispersions of magnetic droplets in nonmagnetic media into dispersions of nonmagnetic droplets in magnetic fluids) are established. Optical effects occurring in magnetic emulsions under the combined action of a shear flow and a magnetic field are studied. It is concluded that optically active composition media may be developed on the basis of magnetic fluids.     

Influence of perpendicular external magnetic field on microstructures of monolayer composed of ferromagnetic particles: analysis by means of quasi-two-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation

We investigated the influences of the magnetic field strength and particle areal density on the microstructure of a quasi-two-dimensional monolayer composed of ferromagnetic particles by means of a Monte Carlo simulation. The magnetic field was applied along a direction perpendicular to the plane of the monolayer. Microstructures of the monolayer obtained in the simulations were analyzed in terms of radial distribution and orientational distribution functions. Formation of the microstructures is discussed from the perspective of particle-particle interaction energy and the perpendicular magnetic susceptibility of the monolayer was calculated from simulated magnetization curves. The obtained results are summarized as follows. For small areal density of particles, formation of chain-like structures is prevented by the repulsive magnetic interaction between particles due to orientations of the magnetic moments in the particles along the magnetic field direction. For intermediate areal density of particles, the chain-like structures remain even when a relatively strong magnetic field is applied, because contributions of the attractive magnetic interactions increase. For large areal density of particles, mixtures of chain-like and locally ordered structures appear due to the anisotropic attractive magnetic interactions in the absence of the magnetic field. However, when a sufficiently strong magnetic field is applied, the magnetic interactions between particles change to isotropic repulsive interactions, which results in the short-range repulsive steric interactions between particles becoming dominant with the appearance of hexagonal close packed structures.

Magnetoanalysis of micro/nanoparticles: a review

Application of magnetic field on the separation and analysis of nano/microparticles is a growing subject in analytical separation chemistry. The migration phenomenon of a particle under inhomogeneous magnetic field is called magnetophoresis. The migration velocity depends on the magnetic susceptibility and the size of a particle. Therefore, magnetophoresis allows us to determine the magnetic susceptibility of particles, and to separate particles based on the magnetic properties. Magnetic separation of ferromagnetic particles in liquid has been utilized for a long time. For example, a high gradient magnetic separation under the non-uniform magnetic field generated by ferromagnetic mesh has been utilized in a wide region from chemical industry to bioscience. Recent progress on magnetic nanoparticles and microfluidic devices has made it possible to extend the range of application. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that the very sensitive measurement of the magnetic susceptibility of microparticles can be performed by observing magnetophoretic velocity. In this review, we mainly introduce novel separation and detection methods based on magnetophoresis, which have been invented in this decade, and then new principles of particle migration under magnetic field are presented.     

The Magnetocaloric Effect and Heat Capacity of Suspensions of High-Dispersity Samarium Ferrite

The magnetocaloric effect and specific heat capacity of an aqueous suspension of samarium ferrite were determined calorimetrically over the temperature range 288–343 K in magnetic fields of 0–0.7 T. The data obtained were used to calculate changes in the magnetic component of the molar heat capacity and entropy of the magnetic phase and changes in the enthalpy of the process under an applied magnetic field. The magnetocaloric effect was found to increase nonlinearly as the magnetic field induction grew. The corresponding temperature dependences contained a maximum at 313 K related to the second-order magnetic phase transition at the Curie point. The field and temperature dependences of heat capacity contained a maximum in fields of 0.4 T and a minimum at the magnetic phase transition temperature.     

Quantitative Evaluation of the Total Magnetic Moments of Colloidal Magnetic Nanoparticles: A Kinetics‐based Method

A kinetics‐based method is proposed to quantitatively characterize the collective magnetization of colloidal magnetic nanoparticles. The method is based on the relationship between the magnetic force on a colloidal droplet and the movement of the droplet under a gradient magnetic field. Through computational analysis of the kinetic parameters, such as displacement, velocity, and acceleration, the magnetization of colloidal magnetic nanoparticles can be calculated. In our experiments, the values measured by using our method exhibited a better linear correlation with magnetothermal heating, than those obtained by using a vibrating sample magnetometer and magnetic balance. This finding indicates that this method may be more suitable to evaluate the collective magnetism of colloidal magnetic nanoparticles under low magnetic fields than the commonly used methods. Accurate evaluation of the magnetic properties of colloidal nanoparticles is of great importance for the standardization of magnetic nanomaterials and for their practical application in biomedicine.     

Magnetic sponge prepared with an alkanedithiol-bridged network of nanomagnets

The magnetic dipole-dipole interaction between nanomagnets having huge magnetic moments can have a strength comparable to that of the van der Waals interaction between them, and it can be manipulated by applying an external magnetic field of conventional strength. Therefore, the cooperation between the dipole-dipole interaction and the applied magnetic field allows the magnetic moments of nanomagnets to be aligned and organized in an ordered manner. In this work, a network of magnetic nanoparticles connected with flexible long-alkyl-chain linkers was designed to develop a "magnetic sponge" capable of absorbing and desorbing guest molecules with changes in the applied magnetic field. The magnetization of the sponge with long-alkyl-chain bridges (30 C atoms) exhibited a 500% increase after cooling in the presence of an applied field of 7 T relative to that in the absence of a magnetic field. Cooling in a magnetic field leads to anisotropic stretching in the sponge due to reorganization of the nanomagnets along the applied field, in contrast to the isotropic organization under zero-field conditions. Such magnetic-responsive organization and reorganization of the magnetic particle network significantly influences the gas absorption capacity of the nanopores inside the material. The absorption and desorption of guests in an applied magnetic field at low temperature can be regarded as a fascinating "breathing feature" of our magnetic sponge.     

Effect of the magnetic field on the melting transition of Ga and In by nW-stabilized DSC

The melting transition of Ga and In was measured by using a nW-stabilized differential scanning calorimeter working in a magnetic bore. The magnetic effect on the thermometer was about 18 mK at 5 T, which was corrected for the measurement of the magnetic effect on the melting transition of Ga and In. The melting temperatures of Ga and In with the magnetic field of 5 T were obtained to be 8.3 and 10.2 mK, respectively higher than those without the magnetic field. These results show that the solid phase to be relatively more stable under the magnetic field. The calculated temperature shifts of the melting transition due to the magnetic field using the magneto-Clapeyron equation and the reference data of magnetic susceptibility were negative values for both Ga and In, being contradictory to the experimental results.

Controlling chemical reactivity at solid-solution interfaces by means of hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles

Hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles are employed to reversibly regulate the hydrophobic/hydrophilic properties of surfaces and to control the electrochemistry and bioelectochemistry at chemically modified electrodes. Selective bioelectrocatalytic transformations at relay-functionalized electrodes are accomplished by the magnetic attractions of the hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles with coadsorbed hydrophobic redox relays to the electrode. The selective activation of one of two biocatalysts solubilized in the aqueous electrolyte solution in the absence or presence of hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles results in the specific activation of bioelectrocatalytic processes. The magnetic attraction and retraction of hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles to and from semiconductor nanoparticle (CdS)-functionalized electrodes enable the control of the photocurrent directions at the electrode from cathodic to anodic directions, respectively. The magnetic attraction of the hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles to the surfaces is also employed to control biorecognition and biocatalytic transformations at solid supports. The magnetic attraction and retraction of the hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles to and from the surfaces allow the blockage and activation of DNA hybridization, polymerization, and enzymatic digestion, respectively.
