Magnetothermal release of payload from iron oxide/silica drug delivery agents

• Iron oxide/mesoporous-SiO2 core-shell NPs were synthesized.
• The dye was covalently bound to SiO2 shells.
• The release of dye under magnetothermal heating was studied.
• The results are relevant for controlled drug release.

The release of covalently bound Rhodamine B from iron oxide/mesoporous silica core/shell nanoparticles under magnetically induced heating was studied. The system acts as a model to study drug delivery and payload release under magnetothermal heating.
