Abstract |
Magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents (MRI-CAs) distinguish normal and abnormal tissues inside the body through the differential contrast enhancement. For biomedical application MRI-CAs, nanoparticle should be highly water soluble, stable, non-toxic, and ultrasmall in particle size. In This work, we synthesized Gd2O3 nanoparticles coated by polyarylic acid (Mw =5100 Da) to obtain stable nano colloids, in order to achieve high-performance in vivo T1 MRI. The ligand PAA was directly coated on the nanoparticle surface. The colloidal suspension showed a high r1 value of 31.0 and r2/r1 ratio of 1.2 and exhibited high contrast T1 MR images. |
