This work deals with a preparation of superparamagnetic nano- and microparticles with hydrophilic surfaces for bioapplications. The wok is divided into three parts in consonance with experimentally solved problem. First part describes a choice and an optimalization of synthesis of iron oxides nanoparticles with appropriate toxicological, morphological and physico-chemical properties, which surface can be post synthetically modified. Maghemite - γ-Fe2O3 particles were prepared by consequent oxidation of mangnetite - Fe3O4 as an initial substance for a preparation of materials for diagnostics and separations. A conventional alkaline coprecipitation method of magnetite preparation was modified to produce nanoparticles with narrowed size distribution without use of surfactants during their synthesis. Prepared maghemite nanoparticles were cca. 6 nm in diameter and their saturation magnetization was Ms ~ 70 A·m2 ·kg-1 . Such observed value is far higher in comparison with the state of the art and argues thus a proposition the Ms depends not on the preparation method, but only on the nanoparticles size. Maghemite nanoparticles morphology was evaluated by picture analysis of SEM and TEM micrographs, hydrodynamic size and zetapotential was measured with DLS. The structure of the maghemite was confirmed with...
