Abstract
⺠Gold-coated iron nanoparticles have been synthesised. ⺠The active component of cisplatin has been attached to the nanoparticles. ⺠The nanoparticles are highly cytotoxic in the ovarian carcinoma cell lines A2780 and A2780/cp70. ⺠The nanoparticles can be controlled/moved by a magnetic field. ⺠The results demonstrate an ability to direct drugs in the body thus reducing drug side effects.
