NER: Targetting Technology of Suspended Gas-Phase Magnetic Nanoparticles on Biological Systems

多年来，了解颗粒物对健康的影响一直是一项非常重要的科学挑战。该研究小组正在开发一种新方法，利用磁控运输将环境PM和指定成分的粉煤灰输送到目标区域。如果成功，这项技术将大大提高我们在这一领域的能力和理解，这项技术也可以用于靶向药物输送。pi正在气相制造磁性纳米颗粒，并研究它们在吸附有机物、混凝和靶向磁沉积方面的行为。从他的研究中获得的知识可以支持与超细气溶胶颗粒（PM 2.5）相关的公共政策，并可以帮助制定与纳米粒子和超细颗粒相关的新监管政策。

Understanding the health effects of particulate matter (PM) has been a highly important scientific challenge for many years. This research team is developing a novel method to deliver ambient PM and coal flyash with designated composition to target areas using magnetically controlled transport. If successful, the technology will significantly improve our capabilities and understanding in this area, and the technology also could be useful for targeted drug delivery. The PIs are manufacturing magnetic nanoparticles in the gas phase and studying their behavior with respect to sorbing organics, coagulation and targeted magnetic deposition. The knowledge gained from his study could support public policies related to ultrafine aerosol particles (PM 2.5) and could help shape new regulatory policies in relation to nanoparticles and ultrafine particles.
