Abstract

A multifunctional material suitable for cancer therapy, which combines stimuli-responsive properties for drug delivery and magnetic hyperthermia prepared by a one-pot sol-gel synthesis from the conjugation of ureasil cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide) (U-PEO) hybrid materials with superparamagnetic nanoparticles (gamma-Fe2O3), is reported in this communication.
