Test analysis:
1. TEM test analysis:
the contrast agents prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were dispersed in water, and the dispersion of the contrast agents in water was recorded by TEM (transmission electron microscope), and the test results thereof are shown in fig. 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a and 5a, respectively.
As can be seen from fig. 5a, the vanadium-doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent (VIO-1) prepared in comparative example 2, in which the mass doping ratio of the vanadium ions is 0.3, is agglomerated in a large scale in an aqueous solution, and the morphology of the formed VIO-1 nanoparticles is not uniform, so that the VIO-1 contrast agent prepared in comparative example 2 is not advantageous for use as a magnetic resonance contrast agent in vivo.
As can be seen from fig. 1a to 3a, the VIO-2, VIO-3 and VIO-4 nanoparticles all showed a more uniform sphere shape with decreasing doping amount of vanadium ions in examples 1 to 3, and showed better dispersibility in solution (i.e., aqueous solution) than the VIO-1 particles.
As can be seen from fig. 4a, the ION nanoparticles have a uniform spherical morphology, but are clustered or linearly dispersed in an aqueous solution, which indicates that the ION nanoparticles have poor dispersibility in the solution, and are unfavorable for the application of the ION nanoparticles as a magnetic resonance contrast agent in vivo.
From the analysis of the above results (i.e. from examples 1-3 and comparative example 1), doping an iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent with a certain amount of vanadium ions can improve the dispersibility of the iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent, which is advantageous for the use of the vanadium doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent in vivo.
2. Particle size distribution test
The hydrated particle diameters of the nanoparticles prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were tested in the present application using a dynamic light scattering instrument, and the test results are shown in table 1:

Group of Particle size of hydration (nm)
Example 1 240
Example 2 200
Example 3 120
Comparative example 1 180
Comparative example 2 600
It can be seen from examples 1-3 in table 1 that the particle size of the vanadium doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent nanoparticle gradually decreases with the decrease of the doping amount of the vanadium ions, and it is further known from fig. 1a-3a that the particle size of the vanadium doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent nanoparticle decreases with the decrease of the particle size, but the dispersibility thereof gradually increases, because the decrease of the particle size is beneficial to increasing the specific surface area of the contrast agent nanoparticle, thereby increasing the contact area between the contrast agent nanoparticle and water molecules, further accelerating the interaction between the water molecules and the vanadium doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent nanoparticle, improving the dispersibility of the contrast agent nanoparticle, and realizing the enhancement of the magnetic resonance contrast performance of the contrast agent nanoparticle.
3. Magnetic testing
The contrast agent nanoparticles prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were subjected to magnetic testing, and the test results thereof are shown in fig. 1b, 2b, 3b, 4b and 5b, respectively.
According to FIG. 1b, the transverse relaxation rate (r 2 ) 612.4mM -1 s -1 The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the According to FIG. 2b, the transverse relaxation rate (r 2 ) 654.7mM -1 s -1 The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the As shown in FIG. 3b, the transverse relaxation rate (r 2 ) 832.6mM -1 s -1 According to FIG. 5b, the transverse relaxation rate (r 2 ) 298.8mM -1 s -1 The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the As shown in fig. 6, by analyzing the relationship between the doping amount of vanadium ions in the contrast agent nanoparticles and the relaxation rate thereof, it can be found that the relaxation rate of the vanadium-doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent nanoparticles gradually increases as the doping amount of vanadium ions decreases in the early stage of the doping of vanadium ions, and that the VIO nanoparticles exhibit the highest relaxation rate when the doping amount of vanadium ions is 0.09, and then the relaxation rate of the VIO nanoparticles also exhibits a gradually decreasing trend as the doping amount of vanadium ions decreases.
As shown in FIG. 4b, the transverse relaxation rate of ION is 540.5mM -1 s -1 Comparing FIGS. 1b-3b with FIG. 4b, it was found that the good VIO-4 nanoparticles of VIO-2 and VIO-3 have excellent magnetic resonance contrast properties compared with the ION nanoparticles. Therefore, the contrast capability of the iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent can be improved by doping vanadium, and the application of the vanadium-doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent can improve the accuracy of tumor diagnosis.
4. Magnetic resonance imaging test
To further verify the in vivo imaging effect of the vanadium doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent, the VIO-4 nanoparticle prepared in example 3 and the ION nanoparticle prepared in comparative example 1 were injected into tumor-bearing nude mice via tail vein at a dose of 2mg (contrast agent nanoparticle)/kg (nude mice weight) and imaged by a magnetic resonance imaging scanner, and the test results are shown in fig. 3c-3d and 4c-4d, respectively.
As shown in FIGS. 3c-3d, the magnetic resonance T of nude mice bearing tumor 2 The weighted spectrum shows that the brightness of the tumor area of the VIO-4 nano particles gradually darkens after the VIO-4 nano particles are injected into the nude mice through tail vein, which indicates that the VIO-4 shows T in vivo 2 Magnetic resonance contrast agent function. In addition, after 60min of injection, the tumor region of tumor-bearing nude mice exhibited the lowest brightness, indicating that a large amount of VIO-4 nanoparticles accumulated in the tumor region, and that it exhibited the best contrast effect. Over time, the tumor area became progressively brighter, indicating that the contrast effect of the VIO-4 nanoparticles on the tumor area was progressively weaker and it was progressively expelled from the tumor tissue. Meanwhile, the magnetic resonance signal-to-noise ratio spectrogram of the tumor area shows that the magnetic resonance signal-to-noise ratio of the tumor area of the tumor-bearing nude mice gradually rises with the increase of time in the early stage, and reaches the highest value of 29.5% in 60 min. After 60min of injection, the signal-to-noise ratio of the magnetic resonance imaging of the VIO-4 group is reduced with the increase of time, and the change trend is similar to the T 2 The observed phenomenon of the weighted graph is consistent, indicating VIO-4 nanoparticles as T 2 Magnetic resonance contrast agents exhibit a more excellent contrast effect in vivo.
As shown in FIGS. 4c-4d, T in tumor-bearing nude mice injected with ION nanoparticles, the tumor region thereof 2 The weighted graph shows that the best contrast effect is exhibited 60min after injection and the corresponding MR signal to noise ratio value (20.55%) is poor in contrast capability relative to VIO-4.
In summary, the magnetic resonance imaging signal-to-noise ratio of the VIO-4 nanoparticles is higher than that of the ION group, which indicates that the magnetic resonance contrast performance of the VIO-4 nanoparticles is better than that of the ION nanoparticles. Further explaining that the doping of vanadium can improve the contrast capability of the iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent.
According to the application, the vanadium ion with certain mass is doped into the iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent, so that the contrast capability of the iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent is improved, and the accuracy of a tumor patient in magnetic resonance imaging is further improved. In addition, the application further adjusts the doping amount of vanadium ions to finally obtain the vanadium doped iron-based magnetic resonance contrast agent with good dispersivity, high transverse relaxation rate and strong contrast capability, thereby solving the problem that the contrast agent in the prior art affects the diagnosis accuracy of tumor patients.
