Abstract:

Multifunctional nanobiocomposite (NBC) can be fabricated by functionalizing suitable materials on to the nanomaterials. Though many types of nanoparticles are used in biomedical applications, in this study, we have focused on iron nanoparticles (INPs). A NBC was prepared by coating chitosan on to the INPs and coupling the folic acid (F) to the chitosan (C) molecules. Thus prepared NBC (INP-CF) was evaluated for its biocompatibility, toxicity and haemocompatibilty. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction techniques, Transmission electron microscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Vibrational sample magnetometer have confirmed the formation of NBC. In vitro studies were carried out using breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7) and studied the efficacy of prepared NBC using magnetic resonance imaging techniques. The results have revealed the penetration of NBC into the cancer cells. These results indicate the possible use of the NBC as multifunctional agent for treatment of cancer
