Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia based on nanoparticles (NPs) is considered a significant approach in cancer therapy. However, less attention has been paid to the correlation between hyperthermia properties and detailed magnetic characteristics. Herein, the hyperthermia capability of Fe x Ni 100-x (8≤×≤ 40) NPs synthesized using a polyol method was studied by investigating the temperature rise and specific loss power (SLP) of their ferrofluid (FF) solutions while also performing first-order reversal curve (FORC) analysis. The colloidal stability of magnetic NPs in the FFs was enhanced by coating their surface with polyethylene glycol, and the hyperthermia experiments were carried out in ethylene glycol and DI water (DIW) dispersion media using different concentrations (1.25, 2.5 and 5 mg ml− 1). A field-emission scanning electron microscope was employed to characterize the morphology of the FeNi NPs, evidencing
