A) Schematic representation of the functionalization of 100 nm iron oxide nanoclusters (NCs) by APTES and the grafting of TRAIL onto NCs via an amide bond between the amino functions of APTES and the previously ester-activated carboxylic groups of TRAIL. B) Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images of iron oxide NCs. C) Size distribution as inferred from statistical analysis using ImageJ software, <D> = 104 ± 20 nm. D) First magnetization curves of NCs and NC@TRAIL (at 310 K). E) Heating curves (temperature versus time) of NCs and NC@TRAIL under MHT for two iron concentrations (4 and 12 mM). F) Heating capacity (SLP in W.g-1) of NCs and NC@TRAIL in MHT mode.
