GOLD NANOCAGES CONTAINING MAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES

摘要

The present invention relates to gold nanocages containing magnetic nanoparticles and a preparation method thereof. More specifically, relates to hollow-type gold nanocage particles, which contain iron oxide nanoparticles having a magnetic property and have an optical property of strongly absorbing or scattering light in the near-infrared (NIR) region, as well as a preparation method thereof. Due to their optical property and magnetic property, the magnetic nanoparticle-containing gold nanocages can be used in various applications, including analysis in a turbid medium with light, cancer therapy or biomolecular manipulation using light, contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic hyperthermia treatment and drug delivery guide, etc.
