Biomedical Applications of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles: Current Insights Progress and Perspectives.

The enormous development of nanomaterials technology and the immediate response of many areas of science, research, and practice to their possible application has led to the publication of thousands of scientific papers, books, and reports. This vast amount of information requires careful classification and order, especially for specifically targeted practical needs. Therefore, the present review aims to summarize to some extent the role of iron oxide nanoparticles in biomedical research. Summarizing the fundamental properties of the magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, the review's next focus was to classify research studies related to applying these particles for cancer diagnostics and therapy (similar to photothermal therapy, hyperthermia), in nano theranostics, multimodal therapy. Special attention is paid to research studies dealing with the opportunities of combining different nanomaterials to achieve optimal systems for biomedical application. In this regard, original data about the synthesis and characterization of nanolipidic magnetic hybrid systems are included as an example. The last section of the review is dedicated to the capacities of magnetite-based magnetic nanoparticles for the management of oncological diseases.

Vibrational Analysis of Manganese(II) Oxalates Hydrates: An In Silico Statistical Approach.

The experimental and computational vibrational study for three different manganese(II) oxalates hydrates was explored. The elucidation of IR and Raman spectra were discussed based on their structural singularity; in the same way, they establish some interesting relations between them in the field of computational and statistical approaches. The density functional theory (DFT) computational approach was conducted for accurate prediction and interpretation of the intermolecular effects based on experimental and calculated IR and Raman spectra in the solid-state data in combination with multivariate statistical technique. The proposed computational scheme was also explored for the case of the isolated-molecule model. The goals of the study were to access the accuracy of the proposed procedure for solid-state calculations along with electron calculations for the isolated molecules and to reveal the similarities within the groups of objects by the cluster analysis (CA) techniques and two-way CA for the data. The presented simulation procedure should be very valuable for exploring and to classify other oxalate compounds.
