MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521067603 A) filed by Parul University; Kushwaha, Nishabh; and Patel, Dr. Asha, Vadodara, Gujarat, on July 15, 2025, for 'stealth superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle formulation and its method of preparation thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Kushwaha, Nishabh; Patel, Dr. Asha; Kshitija Akarte; Dr. Drishti Panjwani; Dr. Shruti Patel; Dr. Priyanka Ahlawat; Dr. Mange Ram Yadav; Dr. Rajesh K. S.; and Dr. Geetika Madan Patel.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention presents a regulated, data-driven synthesis method for superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) utilizing statistical design of experiments (DoE), including Placket-Burman screening and response surface methodology (RSM). By systematically identifying and optimizing key process parameters, the method significantly enhances the repeatability, stability, and particle size distribution of SPIONs. The resulting nanoparticles exhibit improved colloidal stability, controlled particle size, and low polydispersity index (PDI), making them highly suitable for diagnostic imaging, targeted drug delivery, and theranostic applications. Additionally, the approach involves thorough evaluation of reagent solubility in appropriate solvents and strategic selection of stabilizers to tailor nanoparticle properties. This optimized synthesis protocol enables the production of biocompatible, highly functionalized SPIONs with superior performance characteristics."
