Abstract:

Magnetic drug targeting refers to the attachment of therapeutics to magnetic particles and then applying magnetic fields to concentrate them to disease locations such as to solid tumors, regions of infection or blood clots. Magnetic micro composites can be targeted to the infection site using an external magnetic field against antibiotic resistant strains. In this study, magnetic micro composites were prepared in a well shaped spherical form with a defined size by the suspension cross linking technique for use in the application of magnetic carrier technology. The synthesized iron oxide magnetic material was used in the preparation of the magnetic micro composites. The antibacterial activity was determined by agar well diffusion method. The zone of inhibition was found to increase by 10-fold. Thus, magnetic targeting of magnetic micro composites constitutes a promising alternative for the treatment of infections associated by antibiotic resistant strains.
