  • Patent number: 9623110
    Abstract: A process for making nanoparticles of biocompatible materials is described, wherein an aqueous reaction mixture comprising a metal ion, a nucleobase, an oxidant, and water, is provided along with temperature conditions to directly form within the reaction mixture, a stable dispersion of nanoparticles. Biocompatible nanoparticles comprised of cerium or iron as the metal ion, and a purine and/or a pyrimidine as the nucleobase, are described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 11, 2014
    Date of Patent: April 18, 2017
    Assignee: CERION, LLC
    Inventors: Ashley Renée Versaggi, Wendi Ann Costanzo, Kenneth Joseph Reed
  • Patent number: 9433591
    Abstract: A process for making nanoparticles of biocompatible materials is described, wherein an aqueous reaction mixture comprising a metal ion, a biguanide, an oxidant, and water; optionally further comprising an alpha-amino acid or a nucleobase; is provided along with temperature conditions to directly form within the reaction mixture, a stable dispersion of metal-containing nanoparticles. Biocompatible nanoparticles comprised of cerium and a biguanide, and optionally containing an alpha-amino acid or a nucleobase, are also described. The use of metal oxide nanoparticles comprising a biguanide as a nanoparticle core/corona in the preparation of nanoscale ionic (liquid) material compositions is disclosed.
