RESUSPENDIERBARE BESCHICHTETE MAGNETISCHE TEILCHEN UND STABILE MAGNETISCHE TEILCHENSUSPENSIONEN

摘要

Stable suspensions of coated magnetic particles, preferably resuspendable bioactive particles particularly useful in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, are produced by disrupting, what are presumed to be, crystalline agglomerates of a parent particulate magnetic starting material in the presence of a coating material, such that coating can take place during the disruption. The particles are generally coated in suspension yielding a stable suspension of subdivided particles. With the proper selection of a coating material, preferably a protein or other biochemically or biologically active polymer such as an antibody, a resuspendable (colloidal) bioactive product is obtained.
