摘要: The invention relates to colloidal sized particles composed of magnetic iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4 ) coated with a polysaccharide, preferably dextran, or derivative thereof having pendant functional groups. have moment, are electron dense, and stable non-aggregating under physiological conditions. They can be covalently bonded antibodies, enzymes other biological molecules used label separate cells, cellular membranes by means field.
