A Facile Solvothermal Synthesis of Monodisperse Ni Nanoparticles

A simple solvothermal approach was developed to synthesize uniform spherical monodisperse Ni nanoparticles, which can easily disperse in nonpolar solvents to form homogenous colloidal solution. The as-prepared sample was characterized by XRD, TEM, and FTIR. The results indicate that Ni nanoparticles have the structure of face-centered cube and a narrow distribution with a diameter of （3.5±0.5） nm. The FTIR spectrum reveals that the nanoparticles are coated with oleic acid. In the synthetic process, N2H4·H2O was used as a reducing agent and oleic acid as a surfactant. The probable formation mechanism of the spherical nanoparticles was also discussed.

Synthesis of Bilayer Surfactant-Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles for Application in Magnetic Fluid Hyperthermia

Nanocrystalline La_0.73Sr_0.27MnO₃ perovskite oxides with an average particle size of 26 nm were synthesized using the sol-gel method. To make water based magnetic fluid, the obtained nanoparticles were coated by self-organized bilayer surfactant containing oleic acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate as inner and outer layer, respectively. The bare and coated nanoparticles were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and transmission electron microscopy analyses. Calorimetric analysis was used to determine the heat generation efficiency of the prepared magnetic fluid under various alternating magnetic fields. The obtained results revealed that the maximum temperature achieved by the nanoparticles is in the therapeutic temperature range which enables these materials to be used as self-controlled heating agents in magnetic hyperthermia therapy.     

Chemical Synthesis of Magnetic Nanoparticles for Permanent Magnet Applications

Permanent magnets are a class of critical materials for information storage, energy storage, and other magneto-electronic applications. Compared with conventional bulk magnets, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) show unique size-dependent magnetic properties, which make it possible to control and optimize their magnetic performance for specific applications. The synthesis of MNPs has been intensively explored in recent years. Among different methods developed thus far, chemical synthesis based on solution-phase reactions has attracted much attention owing to its potential to achieve the desired size, morphology, structure, and magnetic controls. This Minireview focuses on the recent chemical syntheses of strongly ferromagnetic MNPs (H_c>10 kOe) of rare-earth metals and FePt intermetallic alloys. It further discusses the potential of enhancing the magnetic performance of MNP composites by assembly of hard and soft MNPs into exchange-coupled nanocomposites. High-performance nanocomposites are key to fabricating super-strong permanent magnets for magnetic, electronic, and energy applications.

溶剂热法合成纯单斜和四方晶相氧化锆中的溶剂效应

在以水或甲醇为溶剂, 通过溶剂热反应合成纯单斜相或四方相氧化锆的前期工作基础上, 利用X射线衍射手段研究了硝酸氧锆(ZrO(NO3)2·2H2O)和尿素的溶剂热反应产物——水合ZrO2的物相结构在不同反应温度、反应时间及后处理温度等条件下的变化过程, 提出了不同晶相氧化锆的形成、转变以及稳定的可能机理. 不论在水还是甲醇溶液中, 最初水解得到的水合ZrO2沉淀即晶相氧化锆前体都具有四方对称性结构. 在水热反应条件下, 氧化锆沉淀物发生Ostwald熟化(溶解-沉淀)过程, 四方对称性结构转变为热力学稳定的单斜对称性结构. 而在甲醇热反应条件下, 氧化锆沉淀物不溶于甲醇, 从而Ostwald熟化过程被抑制, 使得四方对称性结构得以保持; 同时, 尿素与水合锆沉淀物反应脱除所含的结晶水, 形成更刚性的四方对称性结构, 这样使得高温热处理(400 ℃)只能促进其晶化过程, 但不改变其对称性. 因而, 不同溶剂对氧化锆沉淀物溶解性的差异以及造成的氧化锆沉淀物与尿素反应性能的差异可能是溶剂热反应合成单一晶相氧化锆的关键因素.

Synthesis of Cholesterol-Conjugated Magnetic Nanoparticles for Purification of Human Paraoxonase 1

Human serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is known as an antioxidant and is also involved in the detoxification of many compounds. In this study, a novel purification strategy was employed to purify the PON1 by using cholesterol-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles. Magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized and conjugated with cholesterol through diazotized p-aminohippuric acid. In Fourier transform infrared spectrum of cholesterol-p-aminohippuric acid-Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles, the appearance of peaks at 3,358.3, 1,645 cm⁻¹, and at 2,334.9 cm⁻¹ confirmed the conjugation. The molecular weight of purified PON1 was nearly 45 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), and isoelectric point was 5.3. The specific activity was 438 U mg⁻¹ protein, and the purification fold was 515 with 73% yield. The K _m values were 1.3 and 0.74 mM with paraoxon and phenyl acetate, respectively. Western blot of 2D-PAGE confirmed the homogeneity and stability of the enzyme. Mg⁺², Mn⁺², glycerol, (NH₄)₂SO₄, PEG 6000, Triton X-100, and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride did not show any effect on activity. Pb⁺², Co⁺², Zn²⁺, ethanol, β-mercaptoethanol, and acetone reduced the activity while Ni²⁺, Cd²⁺, Cu²⁺, iodoacetic acid, SDS, dimethylformamide, DMSO inhibited the activity. In vitro enzyme activity was slightly reduced by acetyl salicylic and acetaminophen and reduced 50% with amino glycosides and ampicillin antibiotics at concentrations of 0.6 and 30 mg ml⁻¹, respectively. This is the first report for the synthesis of cholesterol-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles for simple purification of PON1 enzyme.     

Synthesis of Phenylboronic Acid-Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles for Sensitive Soil Enzyme Assays

Soil enzymes, such as invertase, urease, acidic phosphatase and catalase, play critical roles in soil biochemical reactions and are involved in soil fertility. However, it remains a great challenge to efficiently concentrate soil enzymes and sensitively assess enzyme activity. In this study, we synthesized phenylboronic acid-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles to rapidly capture soil enzymes for sensitive soil enzyme assays. The iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were firstly prepared by the co-precipitation method and then functionalized by (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane, polyethyleneimine and phenylboric acid in turn, obtaining the final nanoparticles (MNPPBA). Protein-capturing assays showed that the functionalized MNPs had a much higher protein-capturing capacity than the naked MNPs (56% versus 6%). Moreover, MNPPBA almost thoroughly captured the tested enzymes, i.e., urease, invertase, and alkaline phosphatase, from enzyme solutions. Based on MNPPBA, a soil enzyme assay method was developed by integration of enzyme capture, magnetic separation and trace enzyme analysis. The method was successfully applied in determining trace enzyme activity in rhizosphere soil. This study provides a strategy to sensitively determine soil enzyme activity for mechanistic investigation of soil fertility and plant–microbiome interaction.

Synthesis and Soft Magnetic Properties of Mg-doped Ni Nanoparticles

Mg-doped Ni nanoparticles with good soft magnetic properties were prepared with the sol-gel method and were sintered at 400, 500, 600, and 900℃ in argon atmosphere, respectively. The structure and magnetic properties of the samples were studied by means of X-ray diffraction, TEM, and VSM magnetometers.

The particle size became larger with the increase of temperature. When the sintering temperature was 400 °C, the particle size was 6.3 nm, whereas it was 46.2 nm at 900 °C. Both the saturation magnetization（Ms） and the coercivity were enhanced with the increase of the particle size. The Ms values of the samples ranged from 18.965 to 46.766 emu/g and the coercivity ranged from 1051.3568 to 9145.0848 A/m.
