General description
Gadolinium(III) chloride is a white inorganic halide hygroscopic solid soluble in water. Gd3+ species are particularly intriguing because they possess the highest known number of unpaired spins among all elements. The exceptional magnetic properties and symmetry of Gd3+ make it a valuable component in both NMR spectroscopy and MRI applications. It is widely used as a dopant/precursor to enhance the optical and magnetic properties of various materials used in MRI contrast agents, electronic devices, and phosphors.
Application
Gadolinium(III) chloride can be used:
- As a precursor to synthesize Gd metal nanoparticles.
- As a dopant to prepare CdSe nanoparticles as a contrast agent for optical and magnetic resonance imaging applications.
- To prepare Gd-Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether(HMME) phosphors for oxygen sensing.
- To fabricate radioluminescent silica optical fibers via surface plasma chemical vapor deposition (SPCVD), for magneto-optical devices.

Nanomaterials have potential toxicity that is not found in micromaterials, and it is therefore essential to understand their biological activity and potential toxicity. We focused on silica nanoparticles, since it was previously reported that the intravenous administration of silica nanoparticles

Cirrhotic portal hypertension is characterized by increased hepatic oxidative stress, AA (arachidonic acid)-derived TXA(2) (thromboxane A(2)) release and exaggerated hepatic response to the α-adrenergic agonist MTX (methoxamine). Besides promoting hepatic fibrosis, the role of hyperleptinaemia in the modulation of vascular
