Synthesis and Characterization of Ferrofluid-Chitosan-Au Nanoparticles as Brachytherapy Agent Candidate

Brachytherapy is expected to be a solution to the side effect of other cancer therapy methods. This study aims to synthesize ferrofluids (FF)-Chitosan-Au (so-called cold synthesis) as the initial step before using 198Au that is expected to be a targeted and controllable brachytherapy agent. In this...
