| Abstract Scope |
Magnetic materials regulated by external forces to fight cancer cells are currently gaining attention. The magnetic forces are relatively stronger than the NIR laser so they penetrate deeper into the tissues to destroy tumours. Additionally, the synergy between the nanoparticles and their magnetic property results in a viable option for the targeted combating of cancer cells. Therefore, mechanical force (MF) produced by magnetic nanomaterials under low frequency dynamic magnetic field combined with laser technology is the most effective, safe and efficient tool for killing cancer cells and tumour growth. In current study, we synthesized urchin-like porous magnetic microspheres composed of magnetic Fe3O4 particles. We explained the outstanding performance of the synthesized composite for killing cancer cells through mechanical force and photothermal effects under a vibrating magnetic field and near-infrared laser, respectively. The efficiency was improved further after loading the synthesised composite with Chlorin e6 relative to unloaded. |
