Abstract:
The magnetic fluid (MF) for hyperthermia should be superparamagnetic, non-toxic and biocompatible. The compatibility between blood and dextran-stabilized Fe3O4 MF was first investigated; then the influences of the MF concentration and the magnetic field intensity on the heating ability was studied; at last the effects of temperature, shear rate and applied magnetic field on the viscosity of blood and MF/blood mixtures was measured. The results revealed that the viscosity and coagulation time of blood are almost unaffected by small addition of dextran-stabilized Fe3O4 MF, showing good compatibility with blood. The Fe3O4 MF under alternating magnetic field can generate enough energy to heat tumor tissue for hyperthermia therapy. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
