Abstract
The aim of this work was to develop a new microparticulate system able to form a complex with radionuclides with a high yield of purity for diagnostic or therapeutic applications. Owing to its properties potato starch was chosen as starting material and modified by oxidization and coupling of a ligand (polyamine) enabling modified starch to chelate radionuclides. The choice of suitable experiments was based on a combination of a Rechtschaffner experimental design and a surface response design to determine the influence of experimental parameters and to optimize the final product. Starch-based microparticle formulations from the experimental plans were compared and characterized through particle size analysis, scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis and, for the most promising formulations, by in vitro labeling stability studies and determination of free polyamine content or in vivo imaging studies. The mechanism of starch-based microparticle degradation was identified by means of size measurements. The results of the Rechtschaffner design showed the positive qualitative effect of the temperature and the duration of coupling reaction whereas surface response analysis clearly showed that, by increasing the oxidization level and starch concentration, the nitrogen content in the final product is increased. In vitro and in vivo characterization led to identification of the best formulation. With a size around 30 μm, high radiochemical purity (over 95%) and a high signal-to-noise ratio (over 600), the new starch-based microparticulate system could be prepared as ready-to-use kits and sterilized without modification of its characteristics, and thus meet the requirement for in vivo diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
In the context of targeted therapy, we addressed the possibility of developing a drug delivery nanocarrier capable to specifically reach cancer cells that express the most prominent marker associated with cancer stem cell (CSC) phenotype, AC133. For this purpose, 100nm lipid nanocapsules (LNCs) were functionalized with a monoclonal antibody (mAb) directed against AC133 according to two distinct methods: firstly, post-insertion within 100nm LNCs of a lipid poly(ethylene glycol) functionalized with reactive-sulfhydryl maleimide groups (DSPE-PEG(2000)-maleimide) followed by thiolated mAb coupling, and, secondly, creation of a thiolated lipo-immunoglobulin between DSPE-PEG(2000)-maleimide and AC133, then post-inserted within LNCs. Due to the reduced number of purification steps, lower amounts of DSPE-PEG(2000)-maleimide that were necessary as well as lower number of free maleimide functions present onto the surface of immuno-LNC, the second method was found to be more appropriate. Thus, 126nm AC133-LNC with a zeta potential of -22mV while keeping a narrow distribution were developed. Use of the IgG1κ isotype control-immunoglobulins produced similar control IgG1-LNCs. Micro-Bradford colorimetric assay indicated a fixation of about 40 immunoglobulins per LNC. Use of human Caco-2 cells that constitutively express AC133 (Caco-2-AC133(high)) allowed addressing the behavior of the newly functionalized immuno-LNCs. siRNA knockown strategy permitted to obtain Caco-2-AC133(low) for comparison. Immunofluorescence-combined flow cytometry analysis demonstrated that the epitope-recognition function of AC133 antibody was preserved when present on immuno-LNCs. Although grafting of immunoglobulins onto the surface of LNCs repressed their internalization within Caco-2 cells as evaluated by flow cytometry, AC133-specific cellular binding was obtained with AC133-LNC as assessed by computer-assisted fluorescence microscopy. In conclusion, interest of AC133-LNCs as niche carriers is discussed toward the development of CSC targeted chemo- or radio-nanomedicines.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) spontaneously on stainless steel, silicon, and titanium oxidized surfaces. We used contact angle measurements, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray reflectivity analysis to study the formation of SAMs on a model surface of ultraflat titanium (rms = 0.2 nm). The results were extended to standard materials (mechanically polished titanium, stainless steel, and silicon) and showed that water-soluble bisphosphonic perfluoropolyether can easily form SAMs, with 100% surface coverage and a layer thickness of less than 3 nm. Hydrophobic (water contact angle >110 degrees on stainless steel or titanium) and lipophobic (methylene iodide contact angle >105 degrees on titanium) properties are discussed in terms of industrial applications.

Abstract
An in vitro MR-assay for superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) particle cell labelling assessment via three-dimensional quantitative T(2) (*) MR microscopy was proposed. On high-resolution images, and due to the high susceptibility difference between the particles and the surrounding medium, SPIO internalized in cells induces signal loss which may be counted and measured on T(2) (*) maps. The increase in both labelled cell percentage and the average perturbation volume with an added amount of iron in the incubation medium proved that intracellular iron uptake is dependent upon the initial concentration of incubation iron. It also proved that the observed increases in total cellular iron uptake measured by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy are due to both an increase in the iron mass per cell and also an increase in labelled cell concentration. MR results were compared with Prussian blue staining histology. The sensitivity of the MR methodology was then used to distinguish labelling differences for two different types of particle coating. The MRI-assay we proposed is a compulsory tool to optimize labelling efficiency in order to improve in vivo cell detection. Key parameters for detection, such as the percentage of cell labelling, the effect on the image for a given amount of internalized iron and labelling distribution among a cell population, are easily obtained. The comparison of different contrast agents for labelling one cell type, the assessment of one type of contrast agent for labelling different cell types and/or the evaluation of labelling strategies, are possible without having recourse to classical methods, and provide improved accuracy, since the principle is based on intracellular relaxivity.

Abstract
To improve the performance of mono-extruded TLD threads as a dosimetric thermoluminescent tool (French Patent 9903729), a new process was developed by co-extrusion methodology leading to threads of 600 microm diameter with a 50 microm homogeneous polypropylene sheath. In this optimization work, study of parameters such as LiF:Mg,Cu,P powder granulometry, load rate and proportion of components led to an increased sensitivity of around 40%. Moreover, the co-extrusion technique allowed the threads to be sterilized by humid steam (134 degrees C/18 min) without significant variation of the linearity response between 0 and 30 Gy after gamma irradiation (60Co).

Abstract
The aim of the present work was to study the biodistribution of a radiolabeled lipidic nanocapsule formulation after intravenous administration in rat by scintigraphy and gamma counting. This formulation is expected to be used as anticancer agent delivery devices and as transfection complexes. For this purpose, 99mTc-oxine was incorporated in the lipidic core, while 125I labeled tensioactive shell of the nanocapsule. First, in vitro stability of radiolabeled nanocapsules was evaluated by dialysis against distilled water and size measurements. Second, the nanocapsule biodistribution was followed after intravenous administration for 3 h by dynamic scintigraphic acquisition and up to 24 h by determining the gamma activity in blood and tissues. Radiolabeling was efficient and stable in vitro. After intravenous injection blood radioactivity decreased with an early half disappearance time of about 45 min for both radioisotopes. Liver and intestine radioactivities raised up to 24 h. The relatively long remanence in blood of the tracers which is probably due to the presence of PEG at the nanocarrier surface seems promising for the use of these solvent free lipidic nanocapsules as carrier of lipophilic drugs.

Abstract
Tetra-p-aminophenylporphyrin (TPP) was conjugated with gadolinium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) and used as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to achieve tumor selectivity in nude mice. A substantial decrease in T1 was measured in excised tissues (kidneys, tumor, and liver) from mice that received the porphyrin derivative Gd2(DTPA)4 TPP. Toxicity and phototoxicity were less than those obtained with hematoporphyrin derivative in both L1210 lymphoblastic leukemia cells and HT 29 human colonic cancer cells, as determined with in vitro assays. MR images showed an enhancement of contrast between the tumor and adjacent tissue after injection of this agent. The results indicate that Gd2(DTPA)4TPP could be a useful prototype paramagnetic porphyrin MR imaging contrast agent with an affinity for tumors.
