Abstract

Synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is one of the most active research areas in advanced materials. MNPs that have magnetic properties and other functionalities have been demonstrated to show great promise in nanomedical applications. This review summarizes the current MNPs preparation, functionalization and stabilization methods. It also analyzes the detailed features of MNPs. And furthermore it highlights some actual case analyses of these MNPs for disease therapy, drug delivery, hyperthermia, bioseparation and bioimaging applications.
