Improved specific loss power on cancer cells by hyperthermia and MRI contrast of hydrophilic FexCo1 ‐xFe2O4 nanoensembles

This study lays the ground work for further characterization of other mixed spinel ferrites, and in addition we expect that chitosan and PEG coated FexCo1‐xFe2O4 of all the compositions will have good potential for preclinical applications in vivo. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

(a) Suppression of Hc, Mr by surface modification (b) Necrosis of 9L‐Gliosarcoma cells due to enhanced SLP (c) Concentration dependence of darkening (above); determination of 1/T2 relaxation(below) of FexCo1‐xFe2O4.
