| Popis: | The synthesis of Zn (1−x) Ca x Fe 2 O 4 nanoparticles, x=0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.0, was performed by sol-gel method followed by a heat treatment at 400 °C for 30 min. These ferrites showed nanometric sizes and nearly superparamagnetic behavior. The Zn 0.50 Ca 0.50 Fe 2 O 4 and CaFe 2 O 4 ferrites presented a size within the range of 12–14 nm and appropriate heating ability for hyperthermia applications. Hemolysis testing demonstrated that Zn 0.50 Ca 0.50 Fe 2 O 4 ferrite was not cytotoxic when using 10 mg of ferrite/mL of solution. According to the results obtained, Zn 0.50 Ca 0.50 Fe 2 O 4 is a potential material for cancer treatment by magnetic hyperthermia therapy. |
