    Advanced nanostructured materials, such as gold nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, and multifunctional materials, are nowadays used in many state-of-the-art biomedical application. However, although the engineering in this field is very advanced, there remain some fundamental problems involving the interaction mechanisms between nanostructures and cells or tissues. Here we show the potential of 1H NMR in the investigation of the uptake of two different kinds of nanostructures, that is, maghemite and gold nanoparticles, and of a chemotherapy drug (Temozolomide) in glioblastoma tumor cells. The proposed experimental protocol provides a new way to investigate the general problem of cellular uptake for a variety of biocompatible nanostructures and drugs. © 2014 American Chemical Society

    Multifunctional Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) or Single-Ion Magnets (SIMs) are intriguing molecule-based materials presenting an association of the slow magnetic relaxation with other physical properties. In this article, we present an example of a very simple molecule based on Dy3+ ion exhibiting a field induced SIM property and a characteristic Dy3+ based emission. The [Dy(NO3)(3)(H2O)(4)]center dot 2H(2)O (1) complex is characterized by the means of single crystal X-Ray diffraction and their magnetic and photo-luminescent properties are investigated. We demonstrate here that it is possible to correlate the magnetic and luminescent properties and to obtain the Orbach barrier from the low temperature emission spectra, which is often difficult to properly extract from the magnetic measurements, especially in the case of field induced SIMs

    La synthèse de nano-object connait un essor grandissant depuis ces 20 dernières années. Les études fondamentales de système a permis (et permet encore) de trouver de nombreux domaines d'application aux nanotechnologies, que ces soit en catalyse, en électronique, dans le domaine biomédical...La thèse se déroule autour de deux axes de recherches: la synthèse et la description des propriétés magnétique de nanoparticules de fer stabilisé par des liquides ioniques, et la synthèse, l'étude magnétique, et leur évaluation en tant qu'agent de contraste et médiateur d'hyperthermie de nanoparticules de de ferrite fonctionnalisé par des dérivées carbohydrates.The synthesis of nano-object is growing in the last 20 years. Basic research system has (and still allows) to find many areas of application for nanotechnology that is in catalysis, electronics, biomedical ...The thesis proceeds along two lines of research: the synthesis and the description of magnetic properties of iron nanoparticles stabilized by ionic liquids, and the synthesis, magnetic study, and their evaluation as a contrast agent and hyperthermia mediator of functionalized carbohydrate derivatives ferrite nanoparticles.MONTPELLIER-BU Sciences (341722106) / SudocSudocFranceF
