Table 1.

Short-term viability and long-term proliferation of 7 cancer cell lines after exposures to the custom-made biocompatible ferrofluid. Short-term viability was determined by a Live/Dead assay after 2-hour exposure to the ferrofluid with a 0.26% volume fraction ferrofluid. Long-term proliferation was determined by culturing cells after the same exposure to the ferrofluid.
