Rombus-shaped α-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles for antibacterial and anticancer applications
Lymecycline-loaded α-Fe₂O₃ NPs exhibited pH-responsive drug release, selective cytotoxicity toward THP-1 cancer cells, strong antibacterial efficacy, and good biocompatibility with normal cells. These findings highlight their dual functionality and potential as a promising nanoplatform for future anticancer and antimicrobial therapies.
