Abstract
The synthesis and functionalisation of zeolite nanoparticles designed for laser-polarized 129Xe NMR experiments in solution are described. These nanoparticles were functionalized by using original synthesis pathways through semicarbazide COCHO chemistry in order to ensure anchoring of a peptide for targeting biological receptors and attachment of PEG chains for in vivo experiments. Results demonstrated that accessibility of the dissolved noble gas to the micropores was maintained after functionalization. γ Scintigraphy with 111In linked to the zeolite particles has been investigated in order to follow the behaviour of the zeolite nanoparticles in mice. These preliminary 111In scintigraphy experiments showed the localization of the nanoparticles after injection in mice and their biodistribution, as a first proof-of-concept towards in vivo129Xe MRI.
