Manganese ferrite/graphene oxide (MnFe2O4/GO) were prepared by a facile sonochemical method.
GO nanosheets were fully exfoliated and decorated homogeneously with MnFe2O4 nanoparticles.
MnFe2O4/GO exhibited superparamagnetic behavior with saturation magnetization of 34.9 emu/g.
The in vitro cytotoxicity testing showed negligible cytotoxicity of the obtained MnFe2O4/GO.
Drug loading capacity was as high as 0.97 mg/mg and drug release showed pH-sensitive feature.
