A method for introduction of magnetic nanoparticles into tissues by means of magnetic field gradient: an experimental study

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2009 Jun;147(6):750-2. doi: 10.1007/s10517-009-0617-9.

Abstract

Targeted effects of magnetic nanoparticles were studied. Solution with iron-containing nanosubstance was applied to resected nasal bone and cartilage tissues. Magnetic field was generated by a Polus-101 device for low-frequency magnetotherapy, which provided permanent work of one inductor (10.14+/-19.56 mT). The results indicate that magnetic nanoparticles placed into magnetic field gradient penetrate into the thickness of the cartilage and bone tissues.
