	abstract = {Pure magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4) have been synthesized in water by copptn. using two different approaches (from ferrous sulfate and a mixt. of ferrous and ferric chlorides). All materials aggregated in aq. suspension, but their subsequent dispersion on treatment with a variety of agents was obsd. to be different. Magnetite produced using ferrous sulfate could not be disaggregated, whereas magnetite produced from a mixt. of ferrous and ferric chlorides could be disaggregated to a quasi-monodispersed form. The dispersing agents were tetra-Me ammonium hydroxide, Disperbyk 190 and polyacrylic acid. The finding has potentially important implications for the surface activation of superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles and their ability to be used in bio/life science applications.
