Magnetic nanobeads
Magnetic nanobeads (also known as magnetic nanoparticle clusters, NPCs) are nanocomposite materials exhibiting magnetic properties. They are composed of a number of individual magnetic nanoparticles and have a diameter of 50–200 nanometers.[1] Nanoparticles can be either fused by sillica or embedded in a polymer matrix.
Types of magnetic nanobeads
[edit]Ferrite magnetic nanobeads
[edit]Magnetic nanobeads with narrow size distribution consisting of superparamagnetic oxide nanoparticles (~ 80 maghemite superparamagnetic nanoparticles per bead) coated with a silica shell have several advantages over metallic nanoparticles:
- Higher chemical stability (crucial for biomedical applications)
- Narrow size distribution (crucial for biomedical applications)
- Higher colloidal stability since they do not magnetically agglomerate
- Magnetic moment can be tuned with the nanoparticle cluster size
- Retained superparamagnetic properties (independent of the nanoparticle cluster size)
- Silica surface enables straightforward covalent functionalization
Magnetic polymer nanobeads
[edit]For preparation of magnetic nanobeads several polymers can be used, such as PLGA, PLA[2], dextran[3], chitosan[4], polyethyleneimine and polystyrene. Nanobeads can be prepared by nano-emulsion method, suspension polymerization, precipitation, etc.
Magnetic nanobeads scaffolded by DNA-binding zinc finger proteins
[edit]Biotinylated zinc finger proteins (ZnF) were conjugated to DNA templates, followed by incubation with neutravidin-conjugated nanoparticles. The sequence specificity of ZnF and programmable DNA templates enabled a size-controlled construction of nanoparticle clusters.[5]
Applications
[edit]Nanophotonics
[edit]Superparamagnetic ferrite nanobeads with the size 80 – 150 nanometers form ordered structures along the direction of the external magnetic field with a regular interparticle spacing on the order of hundreds of nanometers resulting in strong diffraction of visible light in suspension.[6] When an external magnetic field is applied to colloidally dispersed nanobeads the particles form one-dimensional chain-like structures that exhibit structural color. If a photocurable medium is used for the suspension of nanobeads the photonic chain structures can also be fixed in a specific area by selective UV exposure.[7]
