Deep eutectic solvent comprising of choline chloride and D(+)-glucose was synthesized by mixing in the molar ratio 2:1. Iron oxide nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by co-precipitation method. Deep eutectic solvent consisting of D(+)-glucose acts as a promising reducing agent for the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles. Direct optical band gap of iron oxide nanoparticles was found to be 2.262 eV. Powder X-ray diffraction technique was used to identify the crystalline phases. Surface morphology analysis by Field emission scanning electron microscopy and high resolution transmission electron microscopy confirmed the rod shape structure of the iron oxide nanoparticles. Selected area electron diffraction pattern revealed the identity of lattice planes with the XRD data. The antibacterial and photocatalytic activities of the iron oxide nanoparticles were also studied. The synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles showed appreciable antibacterial and photocatalytic activities

Ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPION) as magnetic resonance imaging were synthesized through a sonochemical co-precipitation method with poly (ethyleneimine) (PEI). The size of the USPION was controlled by poly (ethyleneimine) (PEI) contents, ultrasonic exposure time, and Na4OH concentration. The characteristics of PEI-USPION were studied by X-ray diffractometry, magnetic property measurement system, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and particle size analysis. The PEI-USPION had an average size of 5~10nm with a narrow size distribution, a perfect magnetite crystal structure, and high saturation magnetization.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) of sizes 5 to10 nm were synthesized by the co-precipitation method. They are coated with silica nanoparticles using sonication method. The SPION was produced under the optimum pH of 10, peptized in acidic medium and redispersed in water. The silica nanoparticles were produced through the Stöbermethod. Sonochemical coating of silica nanoparticle on the SPION was successfulat a pH value lower than 5. Otherwise, at higher pH value (but lower than point zero charge (PZC)), the SPION were found to be unstable. Fast hydrolysis of triethoxyvinylsilane(TEVS) shows that silica forms its own particles without coating onto the surfaces of the SPION. Under optimized experimental condition, sonochemical method of coating silica nanoparticles onto the SPION can be considered as an alternative for effective and prompt method that rely mainly on pH of the suspension.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles are increasingly used in medical applications due to their unique physical properties. They are useful carriers for delivering antitumour drugs in targeted cancer treatment. In this study, amido acid-functionalised magnetic nanoparticles (AAFMNs) are used as drug-delivery vehicles for doxorubicine as an efficient tool for the treatment of cancer. Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesised using a co-precipitation method. The prepared iron oxide nanoparticles were then functionalised with amido acid functional groups. Finally, the synthesised AAFMNs were used for the delivery of doxorubicine. AAFMNs were characterised by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and zeta potential. An in vitro-determined hydrodynamic diameter of ∼80 nm suggested their applicability for this purpose. The findings show that AAFMNs are a promising tool for potential magnetic drug delivery.

Synthesis and characterization of iron oxide nanoparticles coated with a large molar weight dextran for environmental applications are reported. The first experiments involved the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles which were coated with dextran at different concentrations. The synthesis was performed by a co-precipitation technique, while the coating of iron oxide nanoparticles was carried out in solution. The obtained nanoparticles were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry. The results demonstrated a successful coating of iron oxide nanoparticles with large molar weight dextran, of which agglomeration tendency depended on the amount of dextran in the coating solution. SEM and TEM observations have shown that the iron oxide nanoparticles are of about 7 nm in size.

AbstractSuperparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IO-MNPs) coated with natural polymers, starch (IO-S MNPs) and dextrin (IO-D MNPs), were synthesized by modified co-precipitation method. IO and hybrid-IO-MNPs were characterized by XRD, SEM, HRTEM, FT-IR spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and zeta potential (ZP). IO-S MNPs and IO-D MNPs have IO core-shell structure with core of 10.8 nm and 13.8 nm and shell of 7.5 nm and 5.9 nm, respectively. The efficiency of the hybrid IO-MNPs for sorption of

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles are synthesized through the co precipitation method by using the new generation base diisopropylamine (DIPA) which electrostatically complexes with the iron ions, reduces them and subsequently caps the nanoparticles.
