Small versus Large Iron Oxide Magnetic Nanoparticles: Hyperthermia and Cell Uptake Properties

Small versus Large Iron Oxide Magnetic Nanoparticles: Hyperthermia and Cell Uptake Properties

Efficient use of magnetic hyperthermia in clinical cancer treatment requires biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), with improved heating capabilities. Small (~34 nm) and large (~270 nm) Fe3O4-MNPs were synthesized by means of a polyol method in polyethylene-glycol (PEG) and ethylene-glycol (E...
