ABSTRACT
In the field of biomedical applications, magnetic nanoparticles have received considerable attention because they offer unique advantages over other types of nanoparticles as nanoscale noble metals and semiconductors. The most commonly utilized forms of magnetic nanoparticles are iron oxide γ-Fe2O3 (maghemite) and Fe3O4 (magnetite) and their corresponding ferrites (MnFe2O4 and CoFe2O4).
