This study presents a pioneering approach to synthesize superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles (SM-NPs) derived from natural ore using an environmentally friendly, green chemistry approach. These SM-NPs exhibit exceptional magnetic properties, surpassing all other forms of iron oxide, making them a novel and promising multi-imaging agent for various biomedical applications. The SM-NPs were synthesized with high purity from naturally occurring magnetite, sourced from the Earth's crust. Characterization via X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the cubic spinel ferrites structure of the sample, with an average particle size of 21.24 nm. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed the presence of elemental functional groups, further supporting the material's suitability for biomedical use. Morphological analysis using field emission scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (FESEM-EDX) unveiled agglomerated spherical particles ranging in size from 60 to 80 nm. The elemental composition analysis via EDX demonstrated predominant iron (Fe) and oxygen (O) elements at concentrations of 75.55% and 20.76%, respectively. The magnetic properties of the SMNPs were assessed using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), revealing a superparamagnetic behavior, as evidenced by the M-H plot. Furthermore, X-ray imaging exhibited a significant signal, even with just 40 mg of the substance, suggesting its potential as a robust contrast agent. Complementary findings from computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans demonstrated substantial absorption capabilities, even at relatively low concentrations of SM-NPs. These remarkable attributes position the green-synthesized SM-NPs as a highly versatile and efficient multi-imaging agent for various biomedical applications.

After being characterized, the graphene powder was orally administered to flies at doses ranging from 0.02 to 0.5%, establishing its non-toxic properties as a prerequisite for potential therapeutic applications. Experiments such as Trypan blue and 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) revealed that graphene causes no harm to the larval gut’s plasma membrane and nucleus. Behavioral assays such as crawling and climbing assays on larvae and adults demonstrated the non-neurotoxic nature of graphene.

A better metabolic profile was evidenced after graphene treatment, including a 36% decrease in hemolymph-free glucose levels and significantly reduced lipid droplets at the highest concentration. In addition, the highest concentration of graphene treatment resulted in a 57% reduced fluorescent intensity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by diabetic flies. Considering all these evidence, this study concludes that graphene’s non-toxic and antidiabetic properties can be used to mitigate the symptoms associated with Type II diabetes and obesity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":471,"journal":{"name":"Applied Nanoscience","volume":"14 2","pages":"423 - 439"},"PeriodicalIF":3.674,"publicationDate":"2024-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139552293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
