Schematic diagram of the lipid-coated iron oxide particles. The lipid-coated LUSPIOs were prepared by first synthesizing the mono-crystalline and mono-disperse iron core. PEG-DSPE, PEG-malamide-DSPE, and liss rhodamine are added at a ratio of 17.3 mg:1.3 mg:0.12 mg per milligram iron. Antibodies (0.35 mg/mg Fe) were attached to the LUSPIO and LSPIO surface via S-acetyl thioglycolic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester modification. (Reprinted with permission from Briley-Saebo et al.
