Multifunctional Magnetic Nanoparticles: Towards Smart Drugs Design
Multifunctional Magnetic Nanoparticles: Towards Smart Drugs Design
Nature has been utilizing nanostructures for billion of years. The following two properties, (i) being about the size of typical biological objects and (ii) the possibility of tailoring their properties by changing their size, make nanoparticles attractive for biomedical applications. Using nanoparticles to deliver drugs to tumours offers an attractive possibility to avoid obstacles that occur during conventional systemic drug administration.
