Synthesis and Application of Polymer Stabilized Lanthanide Fluoride Nanoparticles
A new class of polymer coated lanthanide fluoride nanoparticle aggregates (NPAs) was developed as potential MRI contrast agents. The NPA synthesis has been perfected to control the size distribution and optimize relaxivities. Polyacrylic acid was used as a stabilizing polymer, and was conjugated t...
