“…In such materials different types of polymers including natural polymers, biopolymers and synthetic polymers, have been combined with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) including iron oxide (magnetite) (Fe3O4) [60,[104][105][106], maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) [107][108][109], cobalt (Co) [110], nickel (Ni) [111], iron-platinum (FePt) [112,113] NPs etc. From all the above, iron oxide NPs have been the most widely studied due to their biocompatibility, nontoxicity, and stability and are, by far, the most commonly employed MNPs in biomedical applications [114].…”
