Nuclear magnetic relaxation in the presence of paramagnetic centres has gained increasing interest in recent years partly due to its importance for contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging. Rational design of new more efficient agents is possible as a ...
The enhancement of the spin-lattice relaxation rate for nuclear spins in a ligand bound to a paramagnetic metal ion [known as the paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE)] arises primarily through the dipole-dipole (DD) interaction between the nuclear spi ...
Electron-spin relaxation is one of the determining factors in the efficacy of MRI contrast agents. Of all the parameters involved in determining relaxivity it remains the least well understood, particularly as it relates to the structure of the complex. On ...
To study the physicochemical properties of the DTTA chelating moiety (H4DTTA = diethylenetriaminetetraacetic acid = N,N′-[iminobis(ethane-2,1-diyl)]bis[N-(carboxymethyl)glycine]), used in several compounds proposed as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contr ...
Electronic and magnetic properties of quasi-one dimensional ormore widely low-dimensional systems aswell as their related correlated electron phenomena have been at the very frontier of condensed matter physics for quite some time. The reduced dimensionali ...
Three novel GdDO3A-type bismacrocyclic complexes, conjugated to Ca2+ chelating moieties like ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid and diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid bisamides, were synthesized as potential "smart" magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent ...
A novel ligand, H12L, based on a trimethylbenzene core bearing three methylenediethylenetriamine-N,N,N,N- tetraacetate moieties (–CH2DTTA4–) for Gd3+ chelation has been synthesized, and its trinuclear Gd3+ complex [Gd3L(H2O) 6]3– investigated with respect ...
With their nanoscalar, superparamagnetic Gd3+-ion clusters (1 ´ 5 nm) confined within ultrashort (20-80 nm) single- walled carbon nanotube capsules, gadonanotubes are high- performance T1-weighted contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). At 1. ...
The phenomenon of magnetism is one of the key components of today's technological progress. Magnetic interactions and magnetic materials are essential for the scientific disciplines of physics, chemistry and biology, making this subject truly multidiscipli ...
We applied first principles molecular dynamics (MD) technique to study structure, dynamics, and magnetic interactions of the Gd3+ aqua ion dissolved in liquid water, a prototypical system for Gd-based complexes used as contrast agents for magnetic res ...
