Multifunctional liposomes containing magnetic and gold nanoparticles for cancer therapy

In this work, manganese ferrite nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles were prepared. The structural, magnetic and optical properties were measured by SEM, SQUID and UV/vis/ NIR absorption, respectively. The gold nanoparticles were incorporated in the membrane of liposomes and the magnetic ones in the...

Description
Summary:In this work, manganese ferrite nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles were prepared. The structural, magnetic and optical properties were measured by SEM, SQUID and UV/vis/ NIR absorption, respectively. The gold nanoparticles were incorporated in the membrane of liposomes and the magnetic ones in the aqueous core of liposomes of Egg-PC or DPPC, resulting in multifunctional nanosystems.
