Supramolecular magnetogels as nanocarriers for multimodal cancer therapy

Superparamagnetic manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) nanoparticles were successfully incorporated into self-assembled peptide-derived hydrogels. The magnetogels were evaluated as drug nanocarriers through fluorescence-based techniques (fluorescence emission, FRET and fluorescence anisotropy).
