Synthesis and Bio-functionalization of Multifunctional Magnetic Fe(3)O(4)@Y(2)O(3):Eu Nanocomposites
Overview
Affiliations
A facile homogenous precipitation method has been developed for the synthesis of multifunctional, magnetic, luminescent nanocomposites with Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles as the core and europium-doped yttrium oxide (Y(2)O(3):Eu) as the shell. The nanocomposites showed both super-paramagnetic behavior and unique europium fluorescence properties with high emission intensity. Their surface has been modified with a bifunctional ligand, p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), and further biofunctionalized with biotin; the nanocomposites showed specific targeting for avidin-coupled polystyrene beads.
