Magnetic Particles and Particle Dispersions for Cell Labelling and Biomedical Applications

Liquids Research Limited is a small, specialist chemical company and is Europe's leading manufacturer of customised magnetic particles for a range of applications. 

The company also manufactures a range of magnetic particles dispersed into carrier liquids forming materials known as ferrofluids which are applied in a range of applications including vacuum seals, loudspeakers, magnetic domain observation materials and very high resolution magnetic separation techniques.

Fine particles of ferrites, typically iron oxides are available in a range of sizes from 10nm diameter up to micron sizes. Such particles are available either ready coated with a range of dispersants or in uncoated form suitable for coating with proteins or other materials for subsequent cell labelling applications.

Sizes quoted above are physical mean magnetic diameters.

Customised particles for a specific application can be prepared on modest time scales, typically of a few weeks and technical support in terms of coating and attachment can be provided. We also have available a range of biocompatible ferrofluids which are dispersions of the smaller particles and utilise only materials found in biologically compatible materials.

As a small company operating in the EU we are also willing and interested to participate in R&D programmes with others including participation in the R&D programme of the Commission of the European Communities.

We are happy to accept speculative enquiries about the range of materials and expertise available in our company.
