Preparation of magnetic albumin nanoparticles via a simple and one-pot desolvation and co-precipitation method for medical and pharmaceutical applications.
چکیده
In this study, iron oxide magnetic bovine serum albumin core-shell nanoparticles (BSA coated IONPs) with narrow particle size distribution were synthesized under one-pot reaction via the desolvation and chemical co-precipitation method. Functionalized IONPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. Furthermore, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) analysis show these nanoparticles (NPs) have an excellent magnetic properties. Cellular toxicity of IONPs was also investigated on HFF2 cell lines. Additionally, a hemolysis test of as prepared core-shell NPs were performed. The presence of albumin as a biomolecule coating on the surface of IONPs showed an improving effect to reduce the cytotoxicity. The properties of the designed NPs propose the BSA coated IONPs as a promising candidate for multifunctional biomedical applications.
