Abstract
Despite significant efforts by scientists in the development of advanced nanotechnology materials for smart diagnosis devices and drug delivery systems, the success of clinical trials remains largely elusive. In order to address this biomedical challenge, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have gained attention as a promising candidate due to their theranostic properties, which allow the simultaneous treatment and diagnosis of a disease. Moreover, MNPs have advantageous characteristics such as a larger surface area, high surface-to-volume ratio, enhanced mobility, mass transference and, more notably, easy manipulation under external magnetic fields. Besides, certain magnetic particle types based on the magnetite (Fe3O4) phase have already been FDA-approved, demonstrating biocompatible and low toxicity. Typically, surface modification and/or functional group conjugation are required to prevent oxidation and particle aggregation. A wide range of inorganic and organic molecules have been utilized to coat the surface of MNPs, including surfactants, antibodies, synthetic and natural polymers, silica, metals, and various other substances. Furthermore, various strategies have been developed for the synthesis and surface functionalization of MNPs to enhance their colloidal stability, biocompatibility, good response to an external magnetic field, etc. Both uncoated MNPs and those coated with inorganic and organic compounds exhibit versatility, making them suitable for a range of applications such as drug delivery systems (DDS), magnetic hyperthermia, fluorescent biological labels, biodetection and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, this review provides an update of recently published MNPs works, providing a current discussion regarding their strategies of synthesis and surface modifications, biomedical applications, and perspectives.

Abstract
Magnetic fluids were historically the first active nano-dispersion material. Despite over half a century of research, interest in these nano-objects continues to grow every year. This is due to the impressive development of nanotechnology, the synthesis of nanoscale structures, and surface-active systems. The unique combination of fluidity and magnetic response allows magnetic fluids to be used in engineering devices and biomedical applications. In this review, experimental results and fundamental theoretical approaches are systematized to predict the micro- and macroscopic behavior of magnetic fluid systems under different external influences. The article serves as working material for both experienced scientists in the field of magnetic fluids and novice specialists who are just beginning to investigate this topic.

Abstract
The surface adsorption of eight binary molten salts, AgNO3-M1NO3(M1 = Li, Na, K, Rb), NaNO3-M2NO3 (M2 = K, Rb), Ca(NO3)2-CsNO3, and Cd(NO3)2-NaNO3, has been investigated. It is found that the surface tension and temperature of molten salts at constant pressure and mole fraction satisfy the same equation as that for pure liquid compounds reported in our previous works. The heats of phase transition from the bulk to the surface phase for eight molten salts are determined. The heats per unit area are all at the order of -10-2 J/m2. The phase transition is exothermic because the entropy in the surface phase is smaller than the entropy in the bulk phase. The ratio of the solute surface concentration to the solute bulk concentration is approximated as the first-order polynomials of the solute bulk concentration. Then, curves of the surface tension vs the solute bulk concentration are well fitted. The ratio (ΔcBs/ΔcBα) is used to interpret the changing trend of the surface tension with bulk concentrations of solute. It is also found that the surface tension of molten salts decreases linearly with the solute surface concentration.

Abstract
The effective thermal management of electronic system holds the key to maximize their performance. The recent miniaturization trends require a cooling system with high heat flux capacity, localized cooling, and active control. Nanomagnetic fluids (NMFs) based cooling systems have the ability to meet the current demand of the cooling system for the miniaturized electronic system. However, the thermal characteristics of NMFs have a long way to go before the internal mechanisms are well understood. This review mainly focuses on the three aspects to establish a correlation between the thermal and rheological properties of the NMFs. First, the background, stability, and factors affecting the properties of the NMFs are discussed. Second, the ferrohydrodynamic equations are introduced for the NMFs to explain the rheological behavior and relaxation mechanism. Finally, different theoretical and experimental models are summarized that explain the thermal characteristics of the NMFs. Thermal characteristics of the NMFs are significantly affected by the morphology and composition of the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in NMFs as well as the type of carrier liquids and surface functionalization that also influences the rheological properties. Thus, understanding the correlation between the thermal characteristics of the NMFs and rheological properties helps develop cooling systems with improved performance.

Micelle Formation in Aqueous Solutions of the Cholesterol-Based Detergent Chobimalt Studied by Small-Angle Scattering. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28041811.

Abstract
The structure and interaction parameters of the water-soluble cholesterol-based surfactant, Chobimalt, are investigated by small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering techniques. The obtained data are analyzed by a model-independent approach applying the inverse Fourier transformation procedure as well as considering a model fitting procedure, using a core-shell form factor and hard-sphere structure factor. The analysis reveals the formation of the polydisperse spherical or moderately elongated ellipsoidal shapes of the Chobimalt micelles with the hard sphere interaction in the studied concentration range 0.17-6.88 mM. The aggregation numbers are estimated from the micelle geometry observed by small-angle scattering and are found to be in the range of 200-300. The low pH of the solution does not have a noticeable effect on the structure of the Chobimalt micelles. The critical micelle concentrations of the synthetic surfactant Chobimalt in water and in H2O-HCl solutions were obtained according to fluorescence measurements as ~3 μM and ~2.5 μM, respectively. In-depth knowledge of the basic structural properties of the detergent micelles is necessary for further applications in bioscience and biotechnology.

Abstract
Surfactants are used in confectionery production to control the viscosity and yield value of molten chocolate. To develop a deeper understanding of the structure-function relationship of surfactants in food-related particle suspensions, the apparent viscosity, yield value, sedimentation, and particle interactions of 10 wt% confectioner's sugar-in-canola oil suspensions were investigated in the presence of up to 1 wt% commercial soy lecithin, polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR), citric acid esters of monoacylglycerols (CITREM) or ammonium phosphatides (AMP). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to measure attractive forces at the nano-Newton scale between a sugar substrate and a sugar crystal-functionalized AFM cantilever in an oil environment. For all but PGPR, addition of surfactant reduced the adhesion force between sugar surfaces up to a critical concentration above which the force increased, implying the presence of additional interactions. This critical concentration was assumed to be when monolayer coverage of the sugar surfaces by surfactant occurred (0.05 wt% for lecithin, 0.10 wt% for CITREM and AMP). No critical concentration was found for PGPR, with its greatest effect for each analysis occurring at the highest concentrations tested (0.60 and 1.00 wt%). The significance of these interactions on macroscopic phenomena such as apparent viscosity and sedimentation was also assessed. Like with the AFM data, there was an optimal concentration of added surfactant above which viscosity increased. Sedimentation rate greatly decreased with addition of PGPR while being only slightly affected by addition of lecithin, CITREM and AMP. An argument regarding their efficacy was made based on the relative sizes of the polar headgroup and nonpolar tail groups of the molecules, which contributed to how they adsorbed to the sugar surface. Overall, these results suggested that surfactant properties such as molecular weight and head group properties played an important role in modifying the interactions between sugar crystals in an oil-continuous environment.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles offer unique potential for various technological, biomedical, or environmental applications thanks to the size-, shape- and material-dependent tunability of their magnetic properties. To optimize particles for a specific application, it is crucial to interrelate their performance with their structural and magnetic properties. This review presents the advantages of small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering techniques for achieving a detailed multiscale characterization of magnetic nanoparticles and their ensembles in a mesoscopic size range from 1 to a few hundred nanometers with nanometer resolution. Both X-rays and neutrons allow the ensemble-averaged determination of structural properties, such as particle morphology or particle arrangement in multilayers and 3D assemblies. Additionally, the magnetic scattering contributions enable retrieving the internal magnetization profile of the nanoparticles as well as the inter-particle moment correlations caused by interactions within dense assemblies. Most measurements are used to determine the time-averaged ensemble properties, in addition advanced small-angle scattering techniques exist that allow accessing particle and spin dynamics on various timescales. In this review, we focus on conventional small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering (SAXS and SANS), X-ray and neutron reflectometry, gracing-incidence SAXS and SANS, X-ray resonant magnetic scattering, and neutron spin-echo spectroscopy techniques. For each technique, we provide a general overview, present the latest scientific results, and discuss its strengths as well as sample requirements. Finally, we give our perspectives on how future small-angle scattering experiments, especially in combination with micromagnetic simulations, could help to optimize the performance of magnetic nanoparticles for specific applications.

Abstract
The present work reports the synthesis of a stable aqueous magnetic fluid (AMF) by dispersing double-surfactant-coated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in water using a facile ambient scalable wet chemical route. MNPs do not disperse well in water, resulting in low stability. This was improved by dispersing double-surfactant (oleic acid and sodium oleate)-coated MNPs in water, where cross-linking between the surfactants improves the stability of the AMFs. The stability was probed by rheological measurements and all the AMF samples showed a good long-term stability and stability against a gradient magnetic field. Further, the microwave spin resonance behavior of AMFs was studied in detail by corroborating the experimental results obtained from the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) technique to theoretical predictions by appropriate fittings. A broad spectrum was perceived for AMFs which indicates strong ferromagnetic characteristics. The resonance field shifted to higher magnetic field values with the decrease in particle size as larger-size MNPs magnetize and demagnetize more easily since their magnetic spins can align in the field direction more definitely. The FMR spectra was fitted to obtain various spin resonance parameters. The asymmetric shapes of the FMR spectra were observed with a decrease in particle sizes, which indicates an increase in relaxation time. The relaxation time increased with a decrease in particle sizes (sample A to D) from 37.2779 ps to 42.8301 ps. Further, a detailed investigation of the structural, morphological, and dc magnetic properties of the AMF samples was performed. Room temperature dc magnetic measurements confirmed the superparamagnetic (SPM) characteristics of the AMF and the M-H plot for each sample was fitted with a Langevin function to obtain the domain magnetization, permeability, and hydrodynamic diameter of the MNPs. The saturation magnetization and coercivity of the AMF samples increased with the increase in dispersed MNPs' size of the samples. The improvement in the stability and magnetic characteristics makes AMFs suitable candidates for various biomedical applications such as drug delivery, magnetic fluid hyperthermia, and biomedicines.

Abstract
This study performs natural sand-based synthesis using the sonochemical route for preparing Zn-doped magnetite nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were dispersed in water as a carrier liquid to form Zn-doped magnetite aqueous ferrofluids. Structural data analysis indicated that the Zn-doped magnetite nanoparticles formed a nanosized spinel structure. With an increase in the Zn content, the lattice parameters of the Zn-doped magnetite nanoparticles tended to increase because Zn2+ has a larger ionic radius than those of Fe3+ and Fe2+. The existence of Zn-O and Fe-O functional groups in tetrahedral and octahedral sites were observed in the wavenumber range of 400-700 cm-1. The primary particles of the Zn-doped magnetite ferrofluids tended to construct chain-like structures with fractal dimensions of 1.2-1.9. The gas-like compression (GMC) plays as a better model than the Langevin theory to fit the saturation magnetization of the ferrofluids. The ferrofluids exhibited a superparamagnetic character, with their magnetization was contributed by aggregation. The Zn-doped magnetite ferrofluids exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against gram-positive and negative bacteria. It is suggested that the presence of the negatively charged surface and the nanoparticle size may contribute to the high antibacterial activity of Zn-doped magnetite ferrofluids and making them potentially suitable for advanced biomedical.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles are the basic components of the most promising magnetoresponsive nanoparticle systems for medical (diagnosis and therapy) and bio-related applications. Multi-core iron oxide nanoparticles with a high magnetic moment and well-defined size, shape, and functional coating are designed to fulfill the specific requirements of various biomedical applications, such as contrast agents, heating mediators, drug targeting, or magnetic bioseparation. This review article summarizes recent results in manufacturing multi-core magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) systems emphasizing the synthesis procedures, starting from ferrofluids (with single-core MNPs) as primary materials in various assembly methods to obtain multi-core magnetic particles. The synthesis and functionalization will be followed by the results of advanced physicochemical, structural, and magnetic characterization of multi-core particles, as well as single- and multi-core particle size distribution, morphology, internal structure, agglomerate formation processes, and constant and variable field magnetic properties. The review provides a comprehensive insight into the controlled synthesis and advanced structural and magnetic characterization of multi-core magnetic composites envisaged for nanomedicine and biotechnology.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles are the basic components of the most promising magneto-responsive systems for nanomedicine, ranging from drug delivery and imaging to hyperthermia cancer treatment, as well as to rapid point-of-care diagnostic systems with magnetic nanoparticles. Advanced synthesis procedures of single- and multi-core iron-oxide nanoparticles with high magnetic moment and well-defined size and shape, being designed to simultaneously fulfill multiple biomedical functionalities, have been thoroughly evaluated. The review summarizes recent results in manufacturing novel magnetic nanoparticle systems, as well as the use of proper characterization methods that are relevant to the magneto-responsive nature, size range, surface chemistry, structuring behavior, and exploitation conditions of magnetic nanosystems. These refer to particle size, size distribution and aggregation characteristics, zeta potential/surface charge, surface coating, functionalization and catalytic activity, morphology (shape, surface area, surface topology, crystallinity), solubility and stability (e.g., solubility in biological fluids, stability on storage), as well as to DC and AC magnetic properties, particle agglomerates formation, and flow behavior under applied magnetic field (magnetorheology).

Abstract
This paper is an in-depth analysis devoted to two basic types of water based magnetic fluids (MFs), containing magnetite nanoparticles with electrostatic and with electro-steric stabilization, both obtained by chemical coprecipitation synthesis under atmospheric conditions. The two sets of magnetic fluid samples, one with citric acid (MF/CA) and the other with oleic acid (MF/OA) coated magnetic nanoparticles, respectively, achieved saturation magnetization values of 78.20 kA m-1 for the electrostatically and 48.73 kA m-1 for the electro-sterically stabilized aqueous ferrofluids which are among the highest reported to date. A comprehensive comparative analysis combining electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering, dynamic light scattering and magneto-rheometry revealed similarities and essential differences on the microscopic and macroscopic level between the two kinds of water-based ferrofluids. While the saturation magnetization values are quite different, the hydrodynamic volume fractions of the highest concentration MF/CA and MF/OA samples are practically the same, due to the significantly different thicknesses of the particles' coating layers. The results of volume fraction dependent structure analyses over a large concentration range by small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering, correlated with magneto-rheological investigations for the electrostatically stabilized MFs, demonstrate formation of short chains of magnetic nanoparticles which are relatively stable against coagulation with increasing concentration, while for MFs with electro-steric stabilization, magnetic field and shear rate dependent loosely bound structures are observed. These particle structures in MF/OA samples manifest themselves already at low volume fraction values, which can be attributed mainly to magnetic interactions of larger size particles, besides non-magnetic interactions mediated by excess surfactant.
