  • Title: Preparation and characterization of chitosan poly(acrylic acid) magnetic microspheres.
    Author: Guo L, Liu G, Hong RY, Li HZ.
    Journal: Mar Drugs; 2010 Jul 23; 8(7):2212-22. PubMed ID: 20714433.
    Abstract:
    Spherical microparticles, capable of responding to magnetic fields, were prepared by encapsulating dextran-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles into chitosan poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) microspheres template. The obtained magnetic microspheres were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetry (TG). The results showed that the microspheres were formed and demonstrated magnetic behavior in an applied magnetic field. In addition, magnetite particles were well encapsulated and the composite particles have high magnetite content, which was more than 40%.
