Presentation Transcript

  1. Intrathecal Drug Targeting:Magnetically Guided Nanoparticles Tejen Soni Professor Andreas Linninger Eric Lueshen Indu Venugopal

  2. Goals • Build a spinal cord model with stent • Measure nanoparticle retention • Time • Field Strength • Compare collection efficiency against previous stent-less model • Run simultaneous stentlessmodel experiments • Synthesize magnetic nanoparticles • Later on: • Perform the same experiments for a vasculature model • Develop a more accurate/realistic model

  3. Stent • 8mm diameter • Stainless steel stent • Nitinol stents are not magnetic • Increases magnetic strength • Strength of magnetic field does not come from size of magnet • Field strength is increased by the gradient of the magnetic field • F = grad(m ∙ B)

  4. Spinal Cord Model • 1 stainless steel stent • 2 falcon tubes • 2 PVC pipe valves • 3 pipette valves • 44 nerve roots • 35 lb pull force target magnet • 130 lb pull force barrier magnet • Systolic pump • Syringe pump

  5. Experiments • Systolic pump mimics pulsating motion of CSF • Unlike vascular system where blood flows • Systolic pump: 72 beats/min • Syringe pump: 0.5 ml/min for 2 minutes Lower Upper 2 3 1 Magnetic Barrier Targeting Magnet

  6. Retention vs. Time • Input nanoparticles at valve 1 • Measure collection efficiency in each zone after 1, 5, and 10 minutes • Running each test with fixed target magnet strength • Plot and compare data to the stent-less model Lower Upper 2 3 1 Magnetic Barrier Targeting Magnet

  7. Retention vs. Field Strength • Input nanoparticles at valve 1 • Measure collection efficiency in each zone for 9.5, 25, and 35 lb pull force targeting magnets • Running each test for a fixed amount of time • Plot and compare data to the stent-less model Lower Upper 2 3 1 Magnetic Barrier Targeting Magnet

  8. Stent-less Model Results

  9. Stent-less Model Results

  10. Synthesizing Nanoparticles • 50 ml of 0.5 M ammonium hydroxide to 5 ml iron chloride solution • Black precipitate forms • Magnetic nanoparticles • Centrifuge and decant supernatant • Mix with pure water and store

  11. Future Work • Develop a more accurate/realistic model • Stent suspended in canal • Stent around the dura (falcon tubes) • Run repeated stentless model experiments • Perform the same experiments for a vasculature model • Using soft tube as an artery
