Synthesis and Hemolytic Activity of Magnesium Hydroxide Nanoparticles

Article Preview

Abstract:

nanomagnesium hydroxide (Mg (OH)2) is promising potential material for biomedical applications, such as nanomedicine. However, little is known about the hemolysis of nanostructured Mg (OH)2. In the present investigation, Mg (OH)2 nanoparticles synthesized by precipitation technique using magnesium nitrate and sodium hydroxide. The phase structure and morphology of the Mg (OH)2 nanoparticles are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), selected area electronic diffraction (SAED) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) respectively. Hemolytic activities in vitro are carried out on the synthesized nanoMg (OH)2 samples and the studies reveal that Mg (OH)2 nanoparticles have mild activity against erythrocytes.
