“…Until now, various wet chemical processes such as coprecipitation, sol-gel, hydrothermal/solvothermal, thermal decomposition, electrochemical strategy, and ultrasonic chemistry have been extensively applied to prepare superparamagnetic nanoparticles [7][8][9][10]. Among these routes, different surfactants, such as oleic acid, are introduced to prevent the aggregation of nanoparticles; also toxic reagents such as Fe(III) glucuronate, Fe(acac) 3 , or Fe(CO) 5 are usually used, which render the surface of as-obtained samples to be nonbiocompatible, and obstructed the further surface modification [4,8,11,12].…”
