Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Development of a new magnetic resonance imaging agent based on metallic iron nanoparticles was conducted and following results were obtained: (a) successful synthesis of iron oxide-coated metallic iron nanoparticles having a very high saturation magnetization (Ms > 170 emu/g) and excellent stability in air (decrement of Ms during exposure to air is less than 10 % up to 1000 hrs) and (b) successful atom transfer radical graft polymerization of polyethylene glycol monomethacrylate from the nanoparticles, giving dispersion stability and a “stealth” character.
