Rapid Sonochemically-Assisted Green Synthesis Of Highly Stable And Biocompatible Platinum Nanoparticles As Novel Contrast Agent For Computed Tomography
Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) have some intrinsic properties, including good resistance to corrosion, chemical attacks, high surface area to volume ratio and hold massive potential to be strong contenders for CT imaging contrast agent due to their advantages of high X-ray absorption. However, the...

Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) have some intrinsic properties, including good resistance to corrosion, chemical attacks, high surface area to volume ratio and hold massive potential to be strong contenders for CT imaging contrast agent due to their advantages of high X-ray absorption. However, the synthesis methods of Pt NPs as a contrast agent for CT imaging require elaborate preparation, use of hazardous and expensive chemicals and modified Pt NPs using different chemical materials (inorganic and organic) to improve their stability and biocompatibility. Herein, a simple and facile plant-directed preparation of Pt NPs was achieved to improve the Hounsfield (HU) values for CT imaging. A highly-stable, biocompatible and ultrasmall Pt NPs with a mean core size of 5 ±1.5 nm was obtained through one step, one-pot, user-friendly, and straightforward method using Prosopis farcta fruits extract (P. farcta) as reducing agent and stabilizer using a sonochemical synthesis.
