Schematic drawing of the experimental design. Saline Group, animals received an intratesticular injection of sterile saline solution.
MF Group, animals received an intratesticular injection of the magnetic fluid.
AC Group, animals were exposed to the external AC magnetic field only.
MNH Group, animals received an intratesticular injection of the magnetic fluid and were exposed to the external AC magnetic field. Animals were divided into 3 subgroups and evaluated: 7 (MNH-D7 Group), 28 (MNH-D28 Group), and 56 (MNH-D56 Group) days after the magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia treatment.
