Summary: There is limited evidence of the successful and safe application of magnetic hyperthermia in large animals. A new therapeutic approach called superparamagnetic hyperthermia, using multicore encapsulated iron oxide nanoparticles, has been developed to overcome the safety challenges. Studies conducted in healthy swine show that the approach is safe and well-tolerated, both when used alone and in combination with external alternating magnetic field (AMF) exposure.

Summary: Chemical safety education is crucial for creating a culture of safety in academic research settings. Safety moments, which raise awareness about routine safety issues in research laboratories, serve as a proactive way to foster open communication among students and faculty across science and engineering disciplines. By designing effective safety moments and tailoring them to practical safety needs, institutions can combat complacency and encourage local dialogue on safety, ultimately leading to long-term improvements in lab safety culture.

Summary: Membrane fusion plays a crucial role in various scientific fields and biotechnological processes. In this study, hydrophobic oleic acid-coated magnetite nanoparticles were used to induce the fusion of liposomes, showing a direct dependence on the nanoparticle concentration. The application of a low-intensity magnetic field enhanced the fusogenic activity of the nanoparticles, highlighting their potential for biotechnological applications.

Summary: Various materials, including iron oxide particle nanosystems, are studied in the field of magnetic hyperthermia, with promising results shown in clinical trials. The type of material can affect hyperthermia indicators, and studies have analyzed magnetite nanoparticles in different forms, revealing that a rotating magnetic field is more efficient in generating heat than an alternating magnetic field. Efficiency varies based on the arrangement of magnetite nanoparticles.

Summary: Novel magnetic nanocomposite materials based on Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with iron and silica glycerolates were synthesized and characterized. These materials exhibited high magnetization values and strong magnetic response to alternating magnetic field, and the silica glycerolates shell could undergo hydrolysis in aqueous media. Additionally, the materials showed no cytotoxicity in in vitro experiments, suggesting their potential for controlled-release drug delivery.

Summary: In this study, UO2 thin films were synthesized by CVD using a U(VI) precursor, and it was found that the application of magnetic fields can alter the morphology and crystallographic orientation of grains, reduce grain size, promote polycrystalline growth, and decrease surface oxidation of U(IV) centers. The presence of a magnetic field as an extrinsic parameter in the CVD process has a positive effect on controlling the texture and chemical homogeneity of the grown films.

Summary: The in vitro study demonstrates wireless control of neural activity using magnetoelectric nanoparticles with a sub-25-msec temporal response. The study shows that magnetoelectric nanoparticles can wirelessly induce calcium transients in neural cells, synchronized with magnetic pulses. This research provides a new approach to modulate neural activity, which is important for future applications in neuroscience.

Summary: This research examines the influence of a magnetic field and nitrogen flow on the formation of gold thin films. Nitrogen flow and an external magnetic field were found to enhance surface plasmon band and disperse nanoparticles without agglomeration. Nitrification of gold and nitridification of quartz substrate were also detected. Gold thin films prepared in the magnetic field under nitrogen flow had the lowest value of 1.5 eV.

Summary: The mechanism of single-pulse magnetic field inducing magnetic nanoparticles to generate the thermoacoustic wave is proposed and proved feasible through simulation and experiment. The generated thermoacoustic signal can reflect the boundary information of the MNPs region, and the intensity of the signal is positively correlated with the concentration of MNPs in the unsaturated magnetized region.

Summary: In this study, the size and uniformity of magnetic nanoparticles were controlled by applying gradient magnetic fields during the solvothermal method. The results show that stronger magnetic fields result in smaller nanoparticles, and greater product of the applied field and its gradient lead to better uniformity. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that magnetic field treatment produces uniform nanoparticles with improved T-1 contrast performance.
