Suspended ferrite magnetic nanoparticles are known to dissipate energy under an oscillating magnetic field. Such energy dissipation could be employed to locally raise temperature inside a tumor to 41-45°C (hyperthermia), ...

The work presented as part of this thesis describes a process to obtain two types of conventionally used magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite and cobalt ferrite, with a narrow size distribution that can be suspended in aqueous ...

Magnetite nanoparticles are attractive for biomedical applications such as magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), a novel cancer treatment, due to their ability to induce heating through energy dissipation in an oscillating ...

A comprehensive study of physical and magnetic properties of cobalt substituted ferrite and magnetite nanoparticles synthesized by thermal-decomposition was carried out. Initially, a systematic study of the effect of ...
