Abstract :
In this paper, a biocompatible MF sample was investigated using X-band MR. The resonance linewidth broadening (/spl Delta/H/sub R/) and the resonance field (H/sub R/) was investigated as a function of temperature (T), at different nonparticle concentration. The biocompatible MF sample used in this study is based on magnetic nanoparticle (9.4 nm is average diameter) coated with dextran. After precipitation in alkaline medium, magnetite nanoparticles were surface coated to produce stable biocompatible MF samples at physiological pH and salinity.
