“…The synthesis of MNPs with these particular qualities has been an active area of research for quite some time now [ 39 ]. The synthesis of MNPs with controlled shape and size has been demonstrated in different studies [ 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ]. MNPs can be synthesized using various defined techniques, namely, hydrothermal synthesis, sol-gel reaction methods, microemulsion methods, electrospray synthesis [ 45 ], chemical co-precipitation, thermal decomposition, solvothermal processes, sonochemical synthesis, microwave assisted synthesis, chemical vapor deposition, carbon arc, combustion, laser pyrolysis, [ 46 , 47 ] spray pyrolysis, precipitation from solution, polyol method, green synthesis [ 48 ], bacterial and microorganism synthesis (including magnetotactic bacteria and iron reducing bacteria) [ 49 , 50 ] and electrochemical synthesis [ 48 ].…”
