Abstract
It has been reported that tripolyphosphate (TPP) can enhance the oxygenation of natural Fe(II)-containing minerals to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the molecular structure of the TPP-Fe(II) mineral surface complex and the role of this complex in the generation and transformation of ROS have not been fully characterized. In the present study, a heterogeneous magnetite (Fe3O4)/O2/TPP system was developed for the degradation of p-nitrophenol (PNP). The results showed that the addition of TPP significantly accelerated the removal of PNP in the Fe3O4/O2 system and extended the range of effective pH to neutral. Experiments combined with density functional theory calculations revealed that the activation of O2 mainly occurs on the surface of Fe3O4 induced by a structural Fe(II)-TPP complex, where the generated O2•- (intermediate active species) can be rapidly converted into H2O2, and then the •OH generated by the Fenton reaction is released into the solution. This increases the concentration of •OH produced and the efficiency of •OH produced relative to Fe(II) consumed, compared with the homogeneous system. Furthermore, the binding of TPP to the surface of Fe3O4 led to stretching and even cleavage of the Fe-O bonds. Consequently, more Fe(II)/(III) atoms are exposed to the solvation environment and are available for the binding of active O2 and O2•-. This study demonstrates how common iron minerals and O2 in the natural environment can be combined to yield a green remediation technology.

Abstract
Extremely short half-life therapeutic molecule nitric oxide (NO) plays significant roles in the functioning of various physiological and pathological processes in the human body, whereas doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) is a clinically important anticancer drug widely used in cancer chemotherapy. Thus, the intracellular delivery of these therapeutic molecules is tremendously important to achieve their full potential. Herein, we report a novel approach for the development of highly water-dispersible magnetic nanocarriers for codelivery of NO and DOX. Primarily, bifunctional magnetic nanoparticles enriched with carboxyl and thiol groups were prepared by introducing cysteine onto the surface of citrate-functionalized Fe3O4 nanoparticles. DOX was electrostatically conjugated onto the surface of bifunctional nanoparticles via carboxyl moieties, whereas the thiol group was further nitrosated to provide NO-releasing molecules. The developed magnetic nanocarrier exhibited good aqueous colloidal stability, protein resistance behavior, and high encapsulation efficacy for NO (65.5%) and DOX (85%), as well as sustained release characteristics. Moreover, they showed superior cytotoxicity toward cancer (A549 and MCF-7) cells via apoptosis induction over normal (WI26VA4) cells. Specifically, we have developed magnetic nanocarriers having the capability of dual delivery of NO and DOX, which holds great potential for combinatorial cancer treatment.

Abstract
Magnetically induced hyperthermia has reached a milestone in medical nanoscience and in phase III clinical trials for cancer treatment. As it relies on the heat generated by magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) when exposed to an external alternating magnetic field, the heating ability of these NPs is of paramount importance, so is their synthesis. We present a simple and fast method to produce iron oxide nanostructures with excellent heating ability that are colloidally stable in water. A polyol process yielded biocompatible single core nanoparticles and nanoflowers. The effect of parameters such as the precursor concentration, polyol molecular weight as well as reaction time was studied, aiming to produce NPs with the highest possible heating rates. Polyacrylic acid facilitated the formation of excellent nanoheating agents iron oxide nanoflowers (IONFs) within 30 min. The progressive increase of the size of the NFs through applying a seeded growth approach resulted in outstanding enhancement of their heating efficiency with intrinsic loss parameter up to 8.49 nH m2 kgFe-1. The colloidal stability of the NFs was maintained when transferring to an aqueous solution via a simple ligand exchange protocol, replacing polyol ligands with biocompatible sodium tripolyphosphate to secure the IONPs long-term colloidal stabilization.

Abstract
Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) obtained by the solvothermal method in ethyleneglycol with the addition of polyethyleneglycol (PEG) with molar mass of 4000, 8000 and 20000 g mol−1 are described, aimed at evaluating its effect on the size, morphology and stability of the nanoparticle. The syntheses were carried out by solubilizing the precursors at 85 and 140 °C, providing smaller nanoparticles as well as smaller crystallites at higher temperatures, while the effect of PEG was less evident. Measurements of nanoparticle surface areas synthesized with PEG 4000 and 20000 g mol−1 at 140 °C provided values of 76 and 14 m2 g−1, respectively, indicating that PEG 4000 surrounds the crystallites, while PEG 20000 preferably surrounds the whole MNP. As a consequence, MNP with very dissimilar porosities were obtained. Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) indicated that MNP synthesized with PEG 20000 possesses higher electronic density than those obtained with PEG 4000, in agreement with the surface area results. Infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated the presence of PEG in the particles, whose amount increased as the particle size decreased. Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) measurements showed that MNP hydrodynamic radius increases with the PEG size and stability in solution increases from pH 5.0 to 9.0 for smaller NP, while polymer presents slight effect on stability for the larger particles. The results obtained in this work show that properties of MNP can be tuned by the dissolution temperature of the chemical precursors and the PEG molar mass, changing their porosity and stability in solution, that are important variables in processes of adsorption, drug delivery and sensor developing.

Abstract
We have developed surface functionalised Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) based system that can be used for tumor-targeted multimodal therapies and MR imaging. Biocompatible, non-essential amino acid (glutamic acid) was introduced onto the surface of Fe3O4 MNPs to provide functional sites for binding of chemotherapeutic drugs. These glutamic acid-coated Fe3O4 MNPs (GAMNPs) exhibit good water-dispersibility, magnetic responsivity and pH dependent charge conversal feature. The magnetic core as well as organic shell of GAMNPs was characterized by XRD, TEM, DLS, FTIR, PPMS and UV-visible spectroscopy and zeta-potential analyzer etc. The broad spectrum anticancer drugs, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and methotrexate (MTX) were electrostatically and covalently conjugated to the surface of GAMNPs, respectively for combination chemotherapy. These dual drugs loaded system (DOX-MTX-GAMNPs) shows pH dependent release behaviour of both the drugs and enhanced toxicity towards breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) as compared to their individual treatment. Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometric analyses confirmed the successful uptake of drug loaded system into MCF-7 cell lines. Further MTX being analogue of folic acid, its co-delivery with DOX would help in internalization of both the drugs into MCF-7 cells. These GAMNPs also show good heating efficiency under AC magnetic field (Intrinsic loss power, ILP = 0.95 and 0.73 and 0.48 nHm2/Kg at Fe concentration of 0.5, 1 and 2 mg/ml, respectively) and transverse relaxivity (r2 = 152 mM-1 s-1) indicating their potential capability for hyperthermia therapy and MRI tracking. Furthermore, it has been observed that the combination of chemotherapeutic drugs and hyperthermia leads to an enhancement of cytotoxicity in MCF-7 cells.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) were optimally synthesized employing two energy sources viz. thermal and microwave using low temperature co-precipitation process. Both methods yielded particles with optimum physicochemical properties for biomedical applications like smaller size (~6--7 nm), narrow size distribution (standard deviation ~1.6-1.7 nm) and good magnetic parameters (saturation magnetisation ~53 emu/g at 9 T). Simplified process made use of domestic oven. After coating by amino acid serine, successful loading (>8 wt%) of drug Doxorubicin was achieved for both SPIONs. Microwave sample showed equivalently efficient drug loading despite half the serine coating. Findings were confirmed by various techniques like X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) etc. Differences in thermal homogeneities and efficiency of heat transfer between two energy modes affected the properties of synthesized SPIONs. Differences were observed in amount of serine coating, drug release behaviour and in vitro experiments on A549 cells like internalisation and cell viability data. About 59 and 39% pH and time dependent drug release at pH 5 was obtained for thermal and microwave sample respectively. In vitro experiments confirmed the successful internalisation and cell death, supporting the suitability of SPIONS as efficient targeted drug carriers. Despite lesser drug release, microwave sample showed comparable in vitro results. Study emphasizes the role and importance of energy in affecting the efficiency and functional behaviour of SPIONs as nano drug carriers. Being biocompatible and magnetic these particles can be applied successfully as efficient targeted drug delivery agents.

Abstract
We report the development of pH-labile ascorbic acid-coated magnetic nanocarriers (AMNCs) for effective delivery of the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) to tumor cells. The uniqueness of this drug delivery system lies in the covalent conjugation of DOX through carbamate and hydrazone bonds, resulting in a slow and sustained drug release profile at different environmental acidities. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analyses reveal the formation of crystalline single-phase Fe3O4 nanoparticles with an average size of 10 nm. The changes in the interfacial characteristics of the nanocarriers and the presence of organic coatings are probed by infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, and thermogravimetric measurements. AMNCs show high colloidal stability in aqueous and cell culture media and possess good magnetic field responsivity and protein resistance characteristics. The drug-loaded nanocarriers exhibited sustained pH-triggered release of drug molecules in acidic mediums, substantial cellular internalization, and significant toxicity toward the proliferation of mouse skin fibrosarcoma (WEHI-164), human breast cancer (MCF-7), and human lung cancer (A549) cells. However, it showed significantly lower toxicity in human normal lung (WI26VA) cells. Overall, these results suggest a pH-sensitive drug release of nanoformulations, which showed selective toxicity to tumor than normal cells.

Abstract
The self-assembly of small molecules into complex nanoscale structures is driven by the interplay of various noncovalent interactions. It has now become evident that by maneuvering this intermolecular interaction the geometry and interfacial properties of several nanoscale objects can be tamed. In particular, diverse structures such as spheres, rods, worms, ribbons, and vesicles can be produced by tuning the packing of molecules in the aggregate. Stimuli-sensitive assemblies that can reversibly associate or dissociate in response to environmental changes have been fabricated as model systems for the self-regulated drug delivery vehicle. Surface passivation of inorganic materials can be achieved by the selective organization of molecules at the interface. Such surface functionalization of inorganic materials by organic counterparts provides kinetic stability in biological media and permits the selective binding of active ingredients. Advances made in the area of molecular self-assembly and factors governing such association processes have made it possible to control the interfacial properties and microstructure of nanoscale materials.

Abstract
The surface modification of Fe3O4-based magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid (PMIDA) was studied, and the possibility of their use as magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents was shown. The effect of the added PMIDA amount, the reaction temperature and time on the degree of immobilization of this reagent on MNPs, and the hydrodynamic characteristics of their aqueous colloidal solutions have been systematically investigated for the first time. It has been shown that the optimum condition for the modification of MNPs is the reaction at 40 °C with an equimolar amount of PMIDA for 3.5 h. The modified MNPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric, and CHN elemental analyses. The dependence of the hydrodynamic characteristics of the MNP colloidal solutions on the concentration and pH of the medium was studied by the dynamic light scattering method. On the basis of the obtained data, we can assume that the PMIDA molecules are fixed on the surface of the MNPs as a monomolecular layer. The modified MNPs had good colloidal stability and high magnetic properties. The calculated relaxivities r2 and r1 were 341 and 102 mmol-1 s-1, respectively. The possibility of using colloidal solutions of PMIDA-modified MNPs as a T2 contrast agent for liver studies in vivo (at a dose of 0.6 mg kg-1) was demonstrated for the first time.

Abstract
Induction heating, a direct and contactless heating method, is generally more rapid and energetically more efficient than other heating methods used. In this work, we report the high-temperature imidization of carbon fiber/polyimide (PI) composites using an in situ induction heating method. Furthermore, we compare the advantages of the method to a conventional thermal procedure. The formed composites feature almost identical imidization rates, glass transition temperatures, and thermal oxidative stabilities cured at the same heating temperatures using a different heating process. Upon doping with ferriferous oxide, the ability of the magnetic nanoparticles in an alternating current field was studied to further drive the heating process and increase the rising and cooling time. The in situ induction heating process proves to be a powerful method for the high-temperature polymerization of high-performance thermoplastic composites, particularly for a PI matrix.
