In this review article, we conceptually investigated the requirements of magnetic nanoparticles for their application in biosensing and related them to example systems of our thin-film portfolio. Analyzing intrinsic magnetic properties of different magnetic phases, the size range of the magnetic particles was determined, which is of potential interest for biosensor technology. Different e-beam lithography strategies are utilized to identify possible ways to realize small magnetic particles targeting this size range. Three different particle systems from 500 μm to 50 nm are produced for this purpose, aiming at tunable, vertically magnetized synthetic antiferromagnets, martensitic transformation in a single elliptical, disc-shaped Heusler Ni50Mn32.5Ga17.5 particle and nanocylinders of Co2MnSi-Heusler compound. Perspectively, new applications for these particle systems in combination with microfluidics are addressed. Using the concept of a magnetic on–off ratchet, the most suitable particle system of these three materials is validated with respect to magnetically-driven transport in a microfluidic channel. In addition, options are also discussed for improving the magnetic ratchet for larger particles.

According to the influence of sintering time, sintering temperature, different amount of flux and different molar ratio of Fe / Sr to the magnetic properties of prepared SrFe12O19 magnetic particles, the optimum SrFe12O19 conditions were concluded. They are: sintering time: 3 hours; sintering temperature: 1073.15 k; flux NaCl amount: 15% wt of the reaction raw materials; Fe / Sr molar ratio: 11.4; the sample magnetic properties: Ms = 63.39emu / g; Mr = 33.44emu / g; Hc = 5798Oe, Mr / Ms = 1 : 1.90 ≈ 1:2. The prepared SrFe12O19 should be single crystal particles and in the shape of flake, and the particle size should be generally about 80-90nm with uniform distribution.

Magnetic particles have been evaluated for their biomedical applications as a drug delivery system to treat asthma and other lung diseases. In this study, ferromagnetic barium hexaferrite (BaFe12O19) and iron oxide (Fe3O4) particles were suspended in water or glycerol, as glycerol can be 1000 times more viscous than water. The particle concentration was 2.50 mg/mL for BaFe12O19 particle clusters and 1.00 mg/mL for Fe3O4 particle clusters. The magnetic particle cluster cross-sectional area ranged from 15 to 1000 μμm2, and the particle cluster diameter ranged from 5 to 45 μμm. The magnetic particle clusters were exposed to oscillating or rotating magnetic fields and imaged with an optical microscope. The oscillation frequency of the applied magnetic fields, which was created by homemade wire spools inserted into an optical microscope, ranged from 10 to 180 Hz. The magnetic field magnitudes varied from 0.25 to 9 mT. The minimum magnetic field required for particle cluster rotation or oscillation in glycerol was experimentally measured at different frequencies. The results are in qualitative agreement with a simplified model for single-domain magnetic particles, with an average deviation from the model of 1.7 ± 1.3. The observed difference may be accounted for by the fact that our simplified model does not include effects on particle cluster motion caused by randomly oriented domains in multi-domain magnetic particle clusters, irregular particle cluster size, or magnetic anisotropy, among other effects.

Despite its uniqueness, the Bargellini multicomponent reaction remains barely known by the most part of chemists. This can be ascribed to the fact that this transformation has not been adequately reviewed in the classic books of named reactions in organic chemistry. Nevertheless, several works on this reaction have been carried out over the years, many of them were written in Italian in the period 1929–1966. In this review article we extensively cover, in a chronological order, the most important applications of the Bargellini reaction reported to date, with the hope that this knowledge-sharing will help chemists to properly use this multicomponent transformation and imagine novel reactivities based on it.

AbstractNanoceria is a nanosized particle preparation of cerium oxide. It shows mixture of cerium in the 3+ and 4+ states on the nanoparticle surface, giving it interesting redox properties. Nanoceria shows effective biological antioxidant properties, which makes it a great candidate for biomedical applications. Many studies have shown promising results on therapeutic potential of nanoceria in diseases like cancer, diabetes, atherosclerosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. Meanwhile, other studies explored biodistribution and toxicity of nanoceria. This review article describes nanoceria, its relevant biomedical applications, and adverse effects, based on previously reported studies.

The models under consideration are a class of infinite particle systems which can be written as a superposition of branching random walks. This paper gives some results about the limiting behavior of the number of particles in a compact set ast→ ∞ and also gives both sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of a non-trivial translation-invariant stationary distribution.

We introduce a new class of interacting particle systems on a graph G. Suppose initially there are Ni(0) particles at each vertex i of G, and that the particles interact to form a Markov chain: at each instant two particles are chosen at random, and if these are at adjacent vertices of G, one particle jumps to the other particle's vertex, each with probability 1/2. The process N enters a death state after a finite time when all the particles are in some independent subset of the vertices of G, i.e. a set of vertices with no edges between any two of them. The problem is to find the distribution of the death state, ηi = Ni(∞), as a function of Ni(0).We are able to obtain, for some special graphs, the limiting distribution of Ni if the total number of particles N → ∞ in such a way that the fraction, Ni(0)/S = ξi, at each vertex is held fixed as N → ∞. In particular we can obtain the limit law for the graph S2, the two-leaf star which has three vertices and two edges.
