Biomedical Applications: An Intravascular Magnetic Catheter Enables the Retrieval of Nanoagents from the Bloodstream (Adv. Sci. 9/2018)
Source abstract
Abstract
The clinical adoption of magnetic nanoparticles for targeted therapy is often hampered by safety and long-term fate issues. In article number 1800807, Veronica Iacovacci, Edoardo Sinibaldi, and co-workers present an intravascular catheter able to efficiently retrieve magnetic nanocarriers from the bloodstream not contributing to therapy, thus mitigating possible side effects. Capture efficiency can reach ≈94% without producing significant hemorheological alterations.
