| Topic | Surface-modified magnetic particles for biology |
| Annotation | Magnetic nanoparticles, e.g., maghemite or magnetite, are prepared by various procedures, such as thermal decomposition of organic precursors or coprecipitation of Fe(II) and Fe(III) salts in a basic medium. In order the particles were stable in aqueous solutions required by biologic applications, it is important to coat their surface by a suitable polymer material. Aim of the work is to prepare new magnetic nanoparticles, modify their surface by suitably selected biocompatible polymers to prevent the aggregation, minimize the non-specific adsorption of undesirable proteins and cells and at the same time to utilize particles for applications in biology, e.g., separation of cells. The investigation may be extended in the field of particles of micrometer size range. |
