COMPLEX INVESTIGATION OF MAGNETOSENSITIVE MICROGELS WITH INCORPORATED MAGNETITE  - article

Lately, ferrogels – nanocomposites based on thermosensitive hydrogels with incorporated magnetic particles that can be used for hyperthermia of cancer and development of targeted drug delivery systems, are in the limelight of many researchers. In this paper, the equilibrium swelling degree, as one of the key characteristics of hydrogels, which directly affects the rate of water sorption, permeability for drugs, mechanical strength of gels and its biological compatibility, has been investigated in conjunction with other physical, chemical and biological parameters. Optimal conditions of nanocomposites synthesis based on thermosensitive hydrogels were found and the possibility of their use in medicine was demonstrated.

Keywords: equilibrium swelling degree of hydrogels, nanocomposites synthesis.
