Fabrication of Cobalt Ferrite Nanoparticles with okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) extract in a Microwave Reactor
In recent years, metal oxide nanoparticles have been the object of study because of their unique optical, electronic, and magnetic properties. Cobalt ferrites (CoFe2O4) are materials that have high magnetocrystalline anisotropy and coercivity and are used in several applications such as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging, biosensors, magnetic hyperthermia, and localized drug delivery. In the present work, the functionalization of the nanoparticles was performed with bioactives from okra extract (Abelmoschus esculentus).
