Doxorubicin (DOX) encapsulation with magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) through a linker of tripolyphosphate (TPP). (a) Synthesis of DOX-TPP-MNP via complexation of the MNP with DOX and TPP. Morphology of (b) DOX-TPP-MNP or (c) DOX-MNP using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) at 200× magnification, and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDAX) analysis of the energy profiles of DOX-TPP-MNP or DOX-MNP. (d) Photograph of DOX-TPP-MNP and DOX-MNP in a 1.5-mL microcentrifuge tube; a magnet was applied to the right side of microcentrifuge tube.
