| Zusammenfassung: | The potential application of magnetic nanosystems as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents has been thoroughly investigated. This work seeks to attain robust MRI-contrast efficiency by designing an interacting landscape of a bimagnetic ensemble of zinc ferrite nanorods and maghemite nanoparticles, γ-Fe2O3ZnFe2O4. Because of competing spin clusters and structural anisotropy triggered by isotropic γ-Fe2O3 and anisotropic ZnFe2O4, γ-Fe2O3@ZnFe2O4 undergoes the evolution of cluster spin-glass state as evident from the critical slowing down law. Such interacting γ-Fe2O3@ZnFe2O4 with spin flipping of 1.2 × 10-8 s and energy barrier of 8.2 × 10-14 erg reflects enhanced MRI-contrast signal. Additionally, γ-Fe2O3@ZnFe2O4 is cell-viable to noncancerous HEK 293 cell-line and shows no pro-tumorigenic activity as observed in MDA-MB-231, an extremely aggressive triple-negative breast cancer cell line. As a result, γ-Fe2O3@ZnFe2O4 is a feasible option for an MRI-contrast agent having longitudinal relaxivity, r1, of 0.46 s-1mM-1 and transverse relaxivity, r2, of 15.94 s-1mM-1, together with r2/r1 of 34.65 at 1.41 T up to a modest metal concentration of 0.1 mM. Hence, this study addresses an interacting isotropic/anisotropic framework with faster water proton decay in MR-relaxivity resulting in phantom signal amplification |
