Physicochemical properties of chlorhexidine-coated magnetic nanoparticles.

Notes: ATR FTIR spectra of the CHX and MNP@CHX (A). The UV–VIS spectra of uncoated MNP, MNP@CHX and free CHX (B). The DSC thermographs of CHX and MNP@CHX (C). Thermogravimetric analysis curves of magnetic nanoparticles coated by aminosilane and MNP@CHX (D). Transmission electron microscopy images (E) and size distribution (F) of MNP@CHX.
