Synthesis and Characterization of Magnetoferritin

100%
EN
The paper presents detailed experimental study of synthesis and characterization a bioinorganic magnetic molecule - magnetoferritin. Magnetoferritin with loading of iron ions per protein molecule in the range from 300 to 3000 was prepared. Size distribution analysis (transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering) shows spherical nanoparticles with particle size distribution from 2 to 12 nm, and hydrodynamic diameter from 12 to 25 nm. The thermomagnetic curves measured after cooling the sample in zero field (zero-field cooling) and under the presence of the measurement field (field cooling) show superparamagnetic behavior with the blocking temperature T_{b} from 22 to 60 K and the magnetization loops measured below T_{b} (at 2 K) show the hysteresis with coercive field from 20 to 30 kA/m depending on the concentration of the magnetic nanoparticles.

Magnetically induced optical birefringence (Δ n) was measured for magnetoferritin and horse spleen ferritin aqueous suspensions. The Δ n for magnetoferritin was described in the frame of the Langevin formalism taking into account distribution of core diameter. The established average magnetic dipole moment and core diameter is equal to about 460 μ_{B} and 3 nm, respectively. It was shown that magnetic birefringence and the Cotton-Mouton constant can be powerful parameters in identification of the magnetic core structure of ferritin, especially useful in biomedicine.
