The invention discloses a synthesis method and application of high-relaxation-rate
manganese-based
nanogel. The synthesis method comprises the following steps: S1, dissolving VCL, AA, VPA, BAC and SDS in water; s2, under the protection of
nitrogen, stirring the solution at 70 DEG C to realize homogenization, and initiating a further
polymerization reaction by using AAPH to generate
nanogel; s3, after the
polymerization reaction is finished, purifying the
nanogel by adopting an HCL
precipitation and NaOH redissolution method so as to remove unreacted monomers; s4, after purification is finished, an
HEPES buffer solution with the pH being 7.4 is used for
dissolution, a MnCl2 solution is added for a reaction at the temperature of 37 DEG C, and the
manganese-based nanogel is obtained. The r1
relaxation rate of the
manganese-based nanogel reaches up to 29.8 mM <-1 > S <-1 > under the
field intensity of 3.0 T, and the manganese-based nanogel is uniform in size, controllable in particle size, high in long-term stability, free of
cytotoxicity, good in
biological safety and capable of being applied to
magnetic resonance imaging T1WI enhancement of liver,
kidney and bone tumors.
