Gram‐Scale Production of Iron Oxide Rubik‐Cube Nanoparticles: New Tools for the Clinical Translation of Magnetic Hyperthermia and Magnetic Particle Imaging (Adv. Funct. Mater. 25/2026)
Magnetic Nanoparticles In their Research Article (10.1002/adfm.202522732), Teresa Pellegrino and co-workers report the gram-scale synthesis of unique anisotropic iron oxide cubic nanoparticles featuring cubic morphology and multicore architecture. They exhibit low coercivity, high saturation magnetization, record magnetic heating losses, and strong MPI signals, enabling advanced theranostic oncology applications.
