Investigation of cyano-bridged coordination nanoparticles Gd3+/[Fe(CN)6]3−/d-mannitol as T1-weighted MRI contrast agents

Abstract

Cyano-bridged Gd3+/[Fe(CN)6]3− coordination polymer nanoparticles of 3–4 nm stabilized with D-mannitol presenting a high r1 relaxivity value of 11.4 mM−1 s−1 were investigated in vivo as contrast agents (CA) for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). They allow an increase of the MR image contrast and can act as an efficient intravascular T1 CA with a relatively long blood-circulation lifetime (60 min) without specific toxicity.
