Dextran CLIO Magnetic Nanoparticles - Amine, 40 kDa

Dextran Size: 40 kDa
Volume (@ 5 mg/mL Fe): 5 mL

General Information:
Amine-functionalized Dextran coated crosslinked iron oxide nanoparticles (CLIO-NH2) have 1-3 superparamagnetic Fe3O4 iron oxide cores (8-10 nm in diameter) imbedded within the matrix of dextran sugar strands of 40 kDa or 70 kDa size. Dextran strands are crosslinked to prevent their disassociation, ensuring long-term biological stability. Dextran surface has been functionalized with Amine NH2 groups.

Features:
Highly biocompatible, non-toxic
Long term stable under physiological conditions
40 kDa and 70 kDa dextran coats are available
Highly magnetic
Can be easily conjugated to NHS-activated ligands

Applications:
In vitro and in vivo magnetic labels for cells and tissues
Magnetic cell separation
Probes for MRI
