Maltol‐Functionalized Fe <sub>3</sub> O <sub>4</sub> Nanoparticles as <i>T</i> <sub>2</sub> Magnetic Resonance Imaging Contrast Agents
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract We present the use of maltol (3‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐4H‐pyran‐4‐one) as a capping ligand for iron oxide nanomaterials. Water‐soluble maltol‐coated Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles were synthesized by a reductive one‐pot synthesis. The nanoparticles were found to be stable in water, and their superparamagnetic properties enabled their application as ultrahigh field T 2 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents. High r 2 relaxivity and r 2 / r 1 ratios were determined at clinical ( B 0 = 3 T) and ultrahigh ( B 0 = 9.4 T) fields, making them on par or superior to current iron‐oxide based commercial MRI contrast agents. A low cytotoxic response in three distinct cell types (HUVEC, KB, U343) indicate maltol‐coated Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles are promising T 2 MRI contrast agents.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
