APM and FAPM characterization.
Notes: (A) APM and OAM under external magnetic field; (B) TEM of APM and FAPM in pH =7.4 solution; (C) thermal gravimetric analysis of magnetite with various polymer coatings; and (D) relaxivity of APM and FAPM are illustrated.
Abbreviations: AP, ALN-PEG polymer; APM, ALN-PEG-coated magnetite; FAPM, ALN-PEG-FA-coated magnetite; OAM, oleic acid-coated magnetite; TEM, transmission electron microscopy; ALN, alendronate; PEG, polyethylene glycol; FA, folic acid.
