Magnetic Nanoparticles for Cancer Hyperthermia
Malignant tumor cells/cancer cells are:
Altered self cells that have escaped normal growth regulation
mechanism, leading to disease, characterized by uncontrolled
growth and spread of abnormal cells.
Normal Cells Cancer Cells
Growth is very orderly and Keep on reproducing
precise. Do not stick together
Good Cell adhesion Do not die if they move to
Cannot be placed wrongly another part of the body
Pre‐programmed to Stay immature and continue
reproduce 50‐60 times, to multiply
maximum Die at 45‐48oC
withstand 52oC

Functionalized Nickel cobaltite nps for drug delivery
and cancer hyperthermia
Nearly monodispersed, superparamagnetic nickel cobaltite nanoparticles
(NiCo2O4) (NCO) synthesized by combustion method . Functionalized using a
biocompatible coat, namely, Mercapto-propionic acid (MPA)
Further two different amino acids, namely Cysteine and Lysine were conjugated
to the NCO:MPA system
Nanomedicine, 2007
MPA has been shown to conjugate with
NCO nanoparticles at carboxyl site,
leaving the carboxyl end of another
molecule free for further conjugation.
The MPA-MPA interaction occurs to
form S-S bonds in between.

Crosslinked polymer structures for sustained –
release of drugs / nanomaterials
Nanoscale polymer capsules can be designed to break down
and release drugs at controlled rates, to allow
differential release in certain environments, such as an
acid medium, and to promote uptake in tumors versus
normal tissues
Preamble and Motivation
Traditional drug delivery - oral and intravenous routes largely inefficient due
to exposure of complete metabolic system Specificity needed –
The signature at

When the gas is of reducing type, such as SO2, a reduction reaction occurs and
there is a increase in oxygen vacancies, which decreases the SnO2 resistance.
