Popis: | Terbium(III) was coordinated to four novel 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) amphiphilic bisamide ligands. The complexes were assembled into mono-disperse micellar nano-aggregates and for the first time Tb(III) has been evaluated as a single lanthanide negative bimodal contrast agent for MRI/OI. The complexes show characteristic Tb(III) emission with quantum yields reaching 7.3% and transverse relaxivity r2 per Tb(III) micelle at 500 MHz and 310 K reaches maximum values up to 60 s(-1) micelle(-1). The efficient T2 relaxation at high magnetic field strengths is sustained by the increased rotational correlation time of the nano-aggregates and high magnetic moment of the terbium ion. |
