Magnetické nanočástice oxidů železa pro medicínu

Kubániová, Denisa

Magnetic nanoparticles of iron oxides, particularly those of ferric oxides, magnetite, substituted variants, including functional derivatives, have attracted significant interest because of promis- ing capabilities in emerging diagnostic imaging methods and novel therapeutic interventions. In addition to the rapid development of syntheses and functionalization methods, a comprehen- sive understanding of their fundamental physical characteristics and the complex link among composition, microstructure, magnetic properties, and relaxation characteristics is pivotal for the rational design of well-defined magnetic nanoparticle systems. Generally, the magnetic behavior of nanoparticles deviates from bulk materials not only due to finite-size and surface effects but also by the occurrence of new crystal structures (polymorphs) and metastable states, such as non-equilibrium cation distribution. The doctoral thesis investigates the key physical characteristics of selected nanoparticle systems (simple ferric oxides of various crystal struc- ture and morphology; Zn-, Co- and Mn-substituted magnetite-maghemite; coated by various hydrophilic and biologically inert surface layers), primarily by 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy and supplemented by other available techniques. For that purpose, Mössbauer spectroscopy that...
