A simple synthetic procedure for preparing biocompatible superparamagnetic Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles is reported. The stability, cytotoxicity and ability for PB nanoparticles to penetrate cells are investigated. The potential of using PB nanoparticles as the T-1-weighted MRI contrast agent is demonstrated.
