Abstract

The aim of the present study is to demonstrate some opportunities in targeted drug delivery using nanotechnology and nanomaterials. We report here the successful development of a contrast agent and media for hypothermal processes using our own synthetic method for SPIO nanoparticles and a cyclodextrin coating
