Story summary
  • Researchers fabricated Y-Type Pb2Mn2Fe12O22 hexagonal ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) by chemical co-precipitation.
  • Chitosan (CT) functionalized the MNPs and enabled encapsulation of doxorubicin (DOX).
  • In vivo, 40 mice were allocated to four treatment groups.
  • Post-treatment tumor weights and histopathology were analyzed; in vitro DOX release by dialysis and SEM/XRD confirmed nanoparticle properties; ethics adhered to by Tanta University (Egypt).
