Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution were synthesized by hydrothermally treating suspensions of iron oxide nanoparticles. Ricinoleic-acid-coated magnetic nanoparticles were co precipitated at room temperature from an aqueous so ...
Nanocomposites with a high and uniform loading of magnetic nanoparticles are very desirable for various applications. In this study, a simple and scalable route for preparing nanocomposites with a high and uniform loading of magnetic nanoparticles is prese ...
At CERN, the circulating beam current measurement is provided by two types of transformers, the DC Current Transformer (DCCT) and the Fast Beam Current Transformer (FBCT). Each transformer is built based on toroidal cores made from a magnetic material. Dep ...

While it is well established that the surface of a nanoparticle plays a pivotal role for the protein corona, the vast number of proteins present in biological media render general conclusions about affinities between nanoparticle surfaces and proteins nont ...
We developed a method to correct absorbance-based toxicity tests to remove the influence of the deposited dose of nano-particles. As a model of absorbance-based toxicity tests, we chose the frequently used MTS test. The corrected cell viabilities obtained ...
For several decades, food-grade synthetic amorphous silica (SAS) have been used as a technological additive to reduce caking of food powders. Human exposure is thus inevitable and safety concerns are taken seriously. The toxicity of silica in general and S ...
Functional materials are crucial to meet today's societal challenges and needs, such as the transition towards low carbon energy production to reduce climate change, renewable energies and green economy, clean mobility and improved communication. In order ...
Hierarchically porous transparent silica coatings combine large specific surface area with enhanced pore accessibility for optical biosensing. This paper describes a versatile approach to fabricate optically transparent silica coatings with multiscale poro ...
