The mean diameter of PFC-nanoparticles is around 250 nm, thus enabling higher surface incorporation of Gd per nanoparticle and therefore higher nanoparticle-based relaxivity compared to smaller Dual-Gd agents described here.
Very recently, Hoex et al. [4] found that Al2O3 can also enable high-surface passivation for n+-type emitters within the range of 10 to 100 Ω/sq.
A glass coverslip caps the electrolyte liquid surface to ensure good optical surfaces enabling high resolution observation.
The role of enhanced surface roughness enabling high double layer capacitances to be achieved was clearly highlighted.
The compatibilizer provides extrudate surface stability, thus enabling high drawing.
The bottom surface of the plate is a 170 um thick glass slide, enabling high magnification microscopy of cultured cells.
Previously, a high-speed computer-controlled circuit was used to control the speed and time of electrochemical etching, enabling fabricating high surface quality metal tips for scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) [31 35].
In the future, we will fabricate a custom objective lens that allows for water immersion and will fill the centering balloon with the immersion medium, decreasing the specular reflection and the spherical aberration and subsequently enabling high-resolution imaging of sub-surface regions of the tissue.
For instance, PEGylated gold NPs with a core size of ∼2.3 nm exhibited high tumor targeting efficiencies of 8.3 ± 0.9%ID/g at 12 h post injection (p.i .. Gold nanocages coated with PEG surface ligand also enabled high blood retention and an efficient tumor uptake of 7.9 ± 1.1%ID/g at 24 h p.i.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) [ 1] is a biomedical imaging method using coherent infrared light that enables high resolution, three-dimensional (3D) sub-surface insight into living tissue utilizing white-light interferometry.
