This review comprehensively examines the synthesis methods, surface functionalization techniques, and diverse biomedical applications of IONPs. Various chemical and physical synthesis techniques, including coprecipitation, sol–gel processes, thermal decomposition, hydrothermal synthesis, and sonochemical routes, are discussed in detail, highlighting their advantages and limitations. Surface functionalization strategies, such as ligand exchange, encapsulation, and silanization, are explored to enhance the biocompatibility and functionality of IONPs. Special emphasis is placed on the role of IONPs in biosensing technologies, where their magnetic and optical properties enable significant advancements, including in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based biosensors, fluorescence biosensors, and field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors. The review explores how IONPs enhance sensitivity and selectivity in detecting biomolecules, demonstrating their potential for point-of-care diagnostics. Additionally, biomedical applications such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), targeted drug delivery, tissue engineering, and stem cell tracking are discussed. The challenges and future perspectives in the clinical translation of IONPs are also addressed, emphasizing the need for further research to optimize their properties and ensure safety and efficacy in medical applications. This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the current state and future potential of IONPs in both biosensing and broader biomedical fields.</div> </section> <div id="html-keywords"> <div class="html-gwd-group"><div id="html-keywords-title">Keywords: </div><a href="/search?q=iron+oxide">iron oxide</a>; <a href="/search?q=synthesis">synthesis</a>; <a href="/search?q=functionalization">functionalization</a>; <a href="/search?q=biomedical">biomedical</a>; <a href="/search?q=biosensor">biosensor</a></div> <div> </div> </div> </div> </p> </div> </section> </div> <div class="hypothesis_container"> <ul class="menu html-nav" data-prev-node="#html-quick-links-title"> </ul> <div class="html-body"> <section id='sec1-jfb-15-00340' type='intro'><h2 data-nested='1'> 1. Introduction</h2><div class='html-p'>Iron is an essential trace element in the human body, playing a critical role in numerous biological functions [<a href="#B1-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">1</a>]. Iron oxides are particularly significant among the various iron-based compounds [<a href="#B2-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">2</a>]. These oxides are typically classified into three categories: oxides, hydroxides, and oxyhydroxides [<a href="#B3-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">3</a>]. Due to the unique properties and specific physicochemical characteristics of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs), they are utilized in biomedical fields in the forms of γ-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> and Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (<a href="#jfb-15-00340-f001" class="html-fig">Figure 1</a>) [<a href="#B4-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">4</a>]. <a href="#jfb-15-00340-f001" class="html-fig">Figure 1</a>a shows that Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> has a face-centered cubic inverse spinel structure with a cubic close-packed array of O<sup>2−</sup> ions along the (111) orientation, the plane of the face of the crystal. In this structure, Fe<sup>2+</sup> ions occupy half the octahedral sites, while Fe<sup>3+</sup> ions split between the remaining octahedral and tetrahedral sites, giving Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> the lowest resistivity among iron oxides due to its small bandgap (0.1 eV) [<a href="#B5-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">5</a>]. <a href="#jfb-15-00340-f001" class="html-fig">Figure 1</a>b depicts γ-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, which also has a cubic structure with 32 O<sup>2−</sup> ions, 21⅓ Fe<sup>3+</sup> ions, and 2⅓ vacancies. The maghemite structure, a fully oxidized form of magnetite, is an n-type semiconductor with a 2.0 eV bandgap [<a href="#B2-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">2</a>].

The temperature was then raised to 80 °C with continuous stirring until a brown semi-solid gel formed, which was aged for 5 days at room temperature. After aging, the gel was dried at 100 °C for 5 h to obtain a solid xerogel, which was then annealed at 800 °C for 150 min to yield iron oxide nanoparticles. The final product was cooled and ground into a fine reddish powder [<a href="#B52-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">52</a>]. The size of the resulting IONPs can be adjusted between 15 and 50 nm [<a href="#B53-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">53</a>]. The sol–gel approach is a crucial method for synthesizing IONPs [<a href="#B54-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">54</a>].

The sol–gel method offers numerous benefits, such as the use of less expensive precursors compared to alkoxides, which are quite costly, and a straightforward preparation process that yields nanoscale particles with uniform size distribution [<a href="#B57-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">57</a>]. Additionally, this method enables the production of high-purity, consistent nanomaterials at lower temperatures.

The application of a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method for the fabrication of IONPs exemplifies an innovative methodology that significantly augments both the efficiency and efficacy of the production process. This technique leverages the rapid and homogeneous thermal characteristics of microwave radiation, thereby enabling meticulous regulation of reaction parameters and resulting in the generation of iron oxide-hydrochar (FHC) and iron oxide-activated hydrochar (FAC) composites.

MRI</h4><div class='html-p'>Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) constitutes a robust modality that is non-invasive and possesses the capability to generate images of the human anatomy with exceptional resolution, operating fundamentally on the principles of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR); however, in certain instances, the efficacy and sensitivity of the technique may be enhanced through the utilization of contrast agents. In this context, IONPs may be employed. Upon interaction with specific cellular organelles, such as endosomes and lysosomes, the contrast characteristics of these nanoparticles are modified [<a href="#B173-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">173</a>,<a href="#B174-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">174</a>]. The retention duration of IONPs plays a significant role in their practical applications. The operational mechanism of MRI contrast agents is predicated upon the reduction in the relaxation time of protons, which is categorized into T<sub>1</sub> relaxation and T<sub>2</sub> relaxation. T<sub>1</sub> relaxation is defined as the duration necessary for longitudinal magnetization to attain 63% of its equilibrium value, and transverse magnetization to revert to its initial state, with a reduction in this duration resulting in an enhancement of positive contrast. T<sub>2</sub> relaxation pertains to the time required for transverse magnetization to diminish to 37% of its original magnitude and longitudinal magnetization to return to zero, where a decrease in this duration fosters negative contrast. It is imperative to note that the external magnetic fields employed in MRI typically operate at strengths of 1.5 and 3 Tesla. In this context, the dimensions, morphology, and chemical composition of IONPs are critical factors in modulating the T values. To date, IONPs have been predominantly utilized as T2 contrast agents [<a href="#B175-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">175</a>,<a href="#B176-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">176</a>].

These nanoparticles can be specifically engineered for various functions, with targeted drug delivery being a principal application that significantly enhances the efficacy of cancer treatments. Through their interactions with biomolecules at the cellular level, IONPs facilitate the precise targeting of malignant cells, thereby minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Furthermore, IONPs enable the magneto-mechanical stimulation of cell surface receptors, which amplifies therapeutic outcomes through methodologies such as magnetic hyperthermia, wherein localized thermal effects lead to the apoptosis of tumor cells. Typically, when pharmaceuticals are disseminated throughout the body via oral administration or intravenous injection, only a minimal fraction reaches the diseased organ. By employing targeted drug delivery, the concentration of the therapeutic agent within the specific tissues is augmented, and the crossing of physiological barriers within the body is facilitated through various active targeting strategies [<a href="#B194-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">194</a>]. In particular, within the domain of oncological therapies, IONPs employed in pharmacological delivery systems represent a dependable modality.

Modified IONPs can function as carriers, facilitating the delivery of various pharmacological agents throughout the organism (<a href="#jfb-15-00340-f009" class="html-fig">Figure 9</a>). To achieve this objective, IONPs will be encapsulated within a biocompatible, functionalized shell. In this context, the dimensions of IONPs are critically significant; they must be sufficiently diminutive to traverse vascular structures while exceeding 10 nm in size to prevent rapid systemic clearance. Consequently, the optimal size range should be established between 10 and 100 nanometers [<a href="#B196-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">196</a>]. The release of the carrier at the designated target site can be triggered by internal stimuli such as alterations in pH, enzymatic activity, or external stimuli like magnetic fields, ultrasound, or light [<a href="#B197-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">197</a>,<a href="#B198-jfb-15-00340" class="html-bibr">198</a>].

Challenges and Futures Perspective</h2><div class='html-p'>The domain of IONPs is experiencing a significant evolution, characterized by notable progress in their synthesis, functionalization, and biomedical applications. As research advances, various viewpoints regarding their future prospects and associated challenges are emerging, including advancements in functionalization and targeting recent developments in IONP chemistry, which have enabled meticulous control over their dimensions, shapes, compositions, magnetization, and surface charges. These tailored properties are vital for enhancing their biocompatibility and therapeutic effectiveness. Such precision allows for the creation of theranostic agents capable of targeting, imaging, and treating diseases, especially cancer. This dual functionality facilitates real-time monitoring of therapeutic outcomes, paving the way for personalized medicine. Despite encouraging results from animal studies, translating IONPs into effective treatments for humans remains a significant hurdle. Critical factors such as particle size, shape, substitution levels, dosage, and long-term biocompatibility need thorough investigation. Addressing toxicity concerns, particularly related to cancer therapy and multi-drug resistance, is crucial. Comprehensive in vitro and in vivo testing, along with stability evaluations, are necessary to ensure the safety and effectiveness of IONPs before they are broadly implemented in clinical practice. Regulatory and multidisciplinary approaches are crucial. With the expansion of nanotechnology, establishing regulatory guidelines is essential for the safe application of IONPs in medicine. Collaboration between regulatory bodies and researchers is required to develop standardized procedures for clinical and preclinical trials. These guidelines will promote innovation while ensuring public safety. While the versatility of IONPs in drug delivery is well-established, understanding their mechanistic actions remains a critical area for future research. Exploring how nanoparticle size and synthesis conditions affect efficacy can lead to the development of more effective and safer therapeutic systems. Research into green hybrid systems that utilize tunable IONPs with optimized physicochemical and magnetic properties holds considerable promise.</div></section> </div> <div class="html-back"> <section class='html-notes'><h2 >Author Contributions</h2><div class='html-p'>Conceptualization, M.S. and P.D.; methodology/figure design, P.D.; writing—original draft preparation, M.S.; writing—review and editing, M.S., P.D. and I.M.; supervision, I.M.
