Magnetically actuated nanovectors are prepared through the combination of magnetic nanoparticles and thermoresponsive materials that facilitate the release of the drug when heated at a temperature slightly above the normal ...

This work was centered in the understanding both the phenomenological experimental behavior and theoretical description of the flow of a ferrofluid under a rotating magnetic field. The ferrofluid flow under a uniform ...

Hipertermia de fluido magnético (MFH) a mostrado ser un método efectivo para la erradicación de células cancerosas. Esta técnica se basa en la absorción de nanopartículas magnéticas por parte de la célula seguido por la ...

With the objective of developing a magnetic nanoparticle based sensor, we have synthesized cobalt-substituted ferrite particles using reverse micelles. Reverse micelles have been used to control the nanoparticle size. ...

Reverse micelles prepared in the system water, sodium bis-(2-ethylhexyl) sulfoccinate (AOT), and isooctane were investigated as a templating system for the production of gold nanoparticles from the reduction of Au (III) ...

The synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles which respond to alternating magnetic fields by Brownian and Neel relaxation mechanisms are of great interest in determining mechanical properties of complex fluids in the size scale ...

In this work was studied the rotational Brownian motion of magnetic spherical and tri-axial ellipsoidal particles suspended in a Newtonian fluid, in the dilute suspension limit, under applied shear and magnetic fields by ...

The work presented as part of this thesis describes a process to obtain two types of conventionally used magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite and cobalt ferrite, with a narrow size distribution that can be suspended in aqueous ...

Magnetite nanoparticles are attractive for biomedical applications such as magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), a novel cancer treatment, due to their ability to induce heating through energy dissipation in an oscillating ...

The work presented in this dissertation focuses primarily on the rheological characterization of magneto-responsive fluids, consisting of suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles in non-magnetic liquid media. The rheology of ...
