Designed fabrication of a multifunctional polymer nanomedical platform for simultaneous cancer-targeted imaging and magnetically guided drug delivery
Multifunctional polymer nanomedical platforms make simultaneous cancer targeted MRI or optical imaging together with efficient drug delivery in vitro possible. In addition, clusters of Fe3O4 nanoparticles loaded in the polymer nanoparticles endow the magnetic guiding of the polymer particles, providing synergetic targeting efficiency.
