description | In recent years, nanotechnologies have attracted considerable interest, especially in the biomedical field. Among the most investigated particles, magnetic based on iron oxides and Au nanoparticles gained huge interest for their magnetic and plasmonic properties, respectively. These nanoparticles are usually produced starting from processes and reagents that can be the cause of potential human health and environmental concerns. For this reason, there is a need to develop simple, green, low-cost, and non-toxic synthesis methods and reagents. This review aims at providing an overview of the most recently developed processes to produce iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles, Au nanoparticles, and their magneto-plasmonic heterostructures using eco-friendly approaches, focusing the attention on the microorganisms and plant-assisted syntheses and showing the first results of the development of magneto-plasmonic heterostructures. |
