title: A magnetic polyaniline nanohybrid for MR imaging and redox sensing of cancer cells.
abstract: A synthetic process for constructing an organo-metal nanohybrid is described. This process uses polyaniline as a ligand in order to fabricate magnetic nanoparticles. This nanohybrid shows imaging potential uses as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent and a redox-sensing probe simultaneously both in vitro and in vivo.
