Abstract
The treatment of implant-associated infections is still a considerable issue in modern orthopaedical surgery. A promising candi-date to improve this situation are superparamagnetic, drug-loaded nanoparticles in combination with a magnetizable implant and an external magnetic field. This set-up can enhance the accumulation of the magnetic nanoparticles at the targeted implant, thus reducing the number of nanoparticles needed for a successful treatment. Important prerequisites for the superparamagnet-ic nanoparticles to be used are a high magnetization and a sufficiently long circulation time within the body. A poly(ethyleneglycol) (PEG) functionalization is widely used to increase the circulation time. Since the PEG functionalization adds mass to the nanoparticles and influences also other properties, we functionalized magnetic nanoporous silica nanoparti-cles (MNPSNPs) with PEG moieties of different chain length and studied the effect of the chain length on the saturation magnet-ization of the particles.
