title: Mn12 single-molecule magnet aggregates as magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents.
abstract: Mn(12) single-molecule magnets have been dispersed in water through an emulsion-assisted self-assembly method with an improved stability in water, in order to investigate the use of Mn(12) as MRI contrast agents.
