Abstract

Abstract : Currently, research on superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) for magnetic hyperthermia applications is steadily increasing. Abstract : Currently, research on superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) for magnetic hyperthermia applications is steadily increasing. In this work, SPIONs were synthesized by the bromide-assisted polyol method and angle-shaped SPIONs were successfully generated with the optimized concentration of bromide. The influence of bromide concentration on the shape of the generated SPIONs as well as the heating characteristics under an alternating magnetic field (AMF) was thoroughly investigated. At a concentration of 20 mg mL −1 of the angle-shaped SPIONs, the highest temperature curve up to 23 °C was observed under AMF with 140 Oe and 100 kHz for 10 min. With the biotoxicity assay, no significant cytotoxicity was observed in the normal fibroblast of HFB-141103 as well as tumor cells of U87MG and FSall treated with the angle-shaped SPIONs at a concentration below 100 μg mL −1 . However, significantly decreased cellular viability was observed in tumor cells of U87MG and FSall treated with 100 μg mL −1 of the angle-shaped SPIONs under AMF with 140 Oe and 100 kHz. Based on these results, it is thought that the angle-shaped SPIONs synthesized by the bromide-assisted polyol method will provide highly efficient magnetic hyperthermia therapy for cancers under biologically safe AMF with 140 Oe and 100 kHz.
