By using an improved apparatus for the observation of magnetophoresis, the magnetophoretic velocity of 2-fluorotoluene droplets including lauric acid was measured in aqueous dysprosium(III) solution. The magnetophoretic velocity of pure 2-fluorotoluene droplets was proportional to the square of the radius. On the other hand, the velocity of the organic droplets including lauric acid in the dysprosium(III) solution showed a deviation from the square radius relationship, more remarkably in smaller droplets than 2 microm in radius. These results indicated that the dysprosium(III)-laurate complex was formed at the liquid-liquid interface. This study is the first report on the detection of the interfacial complex by the magnetophoresis of the microdroplet.

Magnetic separation is a promising alternative to chromatography for enhancing the downstream processing (DSP) of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). However, there is a lack of efficient magnetic particles for successful application. Aiming to fill this gap, we demonstrate the suitability of bare iron oxide nanoparticles (BION) with physical site-directed immobilization of an engineered Protein A affinity ligand (rSpA) as an innovative magnetic material.

We report a numerical investigation of the magnetophoresis of solutions containing paramagnetic metal ions. Using a simulated magnetic field of a superconducting magnet and the convection-diffusion model, we study the transport of transition metal salts through a porous medium domain. In particular, through a detailed comparison of the numerical results of magnetophoretic velocity and ion concentration profiles with prior published experiments, we validate the model.

The possible magnetophoretic migration of iron oxide nanoparticles through the cellulosic matrix within a single layer of paper is challenging with its underlying mechanism remained unclear. Even with the recent advancements of theoretical understanding on magnetophoresis, mainly driven by cooperative and hydrodynamics phenomena, the contributions of these two mechanisms on possible penetration of magnetic nanoparticles through cellulosic matrix of paper have yet been proven. Here, by using iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs), both nanospheres and nanorods, we have investigated the migration kinetics of these nanoparticles through grade 4 Whatman filter paper with a particle retention of 20-25 μm.

Article Synopsis
- - A new drug delivery system using biointerfacial giant multilayer microcapsules (BGMs) was developed to enhance the delivery of the poorly water-soluble cancer drug paclitaxel (PTX), featuring high drug loading (50.56%) and prolonged release properties.
- - The BGMs were created using a layer-by-layer self-assembly technique, optimizing their structure to incorporate magnetic nanoparticles which improve their targeting ability using an external magnetic field.
- - Both lab tests and animal studies showed that these PTX-loaded magnetic BGMs were effective in killing breast cancer cells and reducing tumor growth, demonstrating a promising approach for cancer treatment with minimized toxicity.

Elongated nanostructures to be remotely and magnetically propelled in biologically relevant media, have gained attention as offering themselves as effective tools or carriers in theragnostics applications. However, the magnetic actuation associated remains challenging due to the lack of mechanical information in the media of interest, taking into account biophysical or biomedical purposes. In this study, we detail the magnetic actuation of magnetically propelled chained nanocomposites considering their dynamics, in which their velocity can be modulated in terms of the viscosity of the medium considered, given a magnetic field gradient.
