Abstract

The use of nanoparticles as drug delivery systems for anticancer therapeutics has great potential to revolutionize the future of cancer therapy. The aim of this study is to construct a novel drug delivery platform comprising a magnetic core and biodegrad- able thermoresponsive shell of tri-block-copolymer. Oleic acid-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles and hydrophilic anticancer drug ''doxorubicin'' are encapsulated with PEO-PLGA-PEO (polyethylene oxide-poly D, L lac- tide-co-glycolide-polyethylene oxide) tri-block- copolymer. Structural, magnetic, and physical proper- ties of Fe3O4 core are determined by X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer, and transmission electron microscopy techniques, respectively. The hydrodynamic size of composite nanoparticles is determined by dynamic light scattering and is found to be *36.4 nm at 25 C. The functionalization of magnetic core with various polymeric chain molecules and their weight proportions are determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimet- ric analysis, respectively. Encapsulation of doxorubi- cin into the polymeric magnetic nanoparticles, its loading efficiency, and kinetics of drug release are investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy. The loading efficiency of drug is 89% with a rapid release for the initial 7 h followed by the sustained release over a period of 36 h. The release of drug is envisaged to occur in response to the physiological temperature by deswelling of thermoresponsive PEO-PLGA-PEO block-copolymer. This study demonstrates that tem- perature can be exploited successfully as an external parameter to control the release of drug.
