Abstract

Stable composition of Iron Neodymium Boron nanoparticles are formed by a chemical method. Conventional borohydride reduction method was used. The particles are in the size range of 30–100 nm. Silica coating was applied to stabilize and prepare the particles for in vitro applications such as cell separation and diagnostics. Morphology of particles has been studied along with the structure and magnetic properties.
