제목 Preparation of PVP-coated Iron Oxide Nanoparticle for MRI Contrast Agent
초록 Magnetic nanoparticles have been widely studied because of their potential application in biomaterial field such as magnetic resonance imaging. Among magnetic particles, iron oxide (Fe2O3, Fe3O4) has been extensively investigated1. However, magnetic nanoparticles tend to agglomerate as a result of their surface-to-volume ratio. One approach to solving this problem is to polymer coating. Common coating materials are dextran, starch, albumin, silicone and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). In this study, Poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) was used as coating materials. PVP is biocompatible, biodegradable and the most suitable polymeric modifier for prolonging the circulation lifetime in blood2. The synthesis consists of the thermal decomposition of organometallic precursor, Fe(CO)5, in the presence of PVP solution. (Figure 1) The two factors used in this experiment were polymer concentration and molecular weight. The TEM image showed PVP-coated iron oxide nanoparticles of < 10 nm. (Figure 2) The size was controlled by polymer concentration and molecular weight. PVP-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were dispersed well in water.
