Abstract
In this review, the applications of magnetic nanoparticles in biomedicine are summarized and introduced in three parts. (1) A short description of magnetic nanoparticles is explained. (2) Applications of magnetic nanoparticles in biomedicine are summarized. In biology, new progress of the magnetic separation techniques based on magnetic nanoparticles is discussed. In medicine, the magnetic nanoparticles as therapeutic agents (particularly as a hyperthermia agent, a targeted drug delivery carrier, and a magnetofection agent) as well as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are explained in detail. (3) A discussion and remarking conclusion of magnetic nanoparticles in biomedical applications are described. Finally, a perspective of the magnetic nanoparticles in biomedicine in future is also described.
