Environmentally-friendly preparation of water-dispersible magnetite nanoparticles.
Water-dispersible Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles have been prepared by a simple solution method, in which the particle size (3-11 nm) can be tuned by simply adjusting the reaction temperature and time; the formation mechanism of Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles is proposed and their low cytotoxicity has also been proved.
