Abstract

Nanocrystalline and slightly agglomerated particles of ferromagnetic compounds with spinel Fe₃O₄ and perovskite La_1-xSr_xMnO₃ structure have been synthesized by co-precipitation from nonaqueous solutions. Magnetic properties of the synthesized nanoparticles have been investigated. It was found that the obtained nanoparticles exhibit superparamagnetic behavior. Developed magnetic fluids based on synthesized nanoparticles have shown promise in hyperthermic cancer therapy, both in vitro and in vivo.
