This diploma thesis was focused on the preparation of magnetic and fluorescently labelled spinel type nanoparticles, specifically nanoparticles of zinc-doped cobalt ferrite intended for application in magnetic resonance imaging and fluorescence microscopy in experimental practice. In previous studies, various ferrite nanoparticles exhibited relatively high transverse relaxation times and strong negative T2 contrast. These properties were also supposed for the zinc-doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles. This assumption was confirmed by studying their magnetic and contrasting properties. Fluorescence properties of the prepared nanoparticles were also successfully studied. With respect to the intended applications of these particles, the issue of suitable surface modification of magnetic cores, their colloidal stabilization in an aqueous suspension and toxicity in biological systems were studied. Key words: nanoparticles, ferrites, MRI, relaxation
