Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a suspension of agglomerates of magnetic alkoxysilane-coated metal nanoparticles, wherein an aqueous suspension of magnetic metal nanoparticles is incubated with alkoxysilane, wherein the incubation is carried out essentially in the absence of an organic solvent. The present invention further relates to suspension of agglomerates of magnetic alkoxysilane-coated metal containing nanoparticles obtainable by the method of the present invention and to a composition comprising agglomerates of magnetic alkoxysilane-coated metal nanoparticles, wherein the agglomerates have an average size of 30 to 450 nm, preferably of 50 to 350 nm and especially of 70 to 300 nm as determined by light scattering.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions containing nanoparticies and uses of said composition for transferring therapeutically active substances into cells by means of specifically coated nanoparticles. The chemical design of the particles is such that a large amount thereof is absorbed into the cells. No direct bond between nanoparticle and the therapeutically active substance is required for the transfer into the cells. Thanks to said transfer, an increased efficacy of the substance and simultaneously reduced systemic toxicity is achieved, i.e. an increase in the efficacy while the side effects are reduced.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to the production of biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles with a high SAR-value which produce a large amount of heat when exposed to an alternating magnetic field. The produced heat can be used among others for therapeutic purposes, in particular for combating cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to nanoparticles, wherein at least one therapeutically active substance is bound to said nanoparticle and wherein the separation of the at least one therapeutically active substance from the nanoparticle is caused or initiated by an alternating magnetic filed. Furthermore, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions, in particular to injection solutions containing the nanoparticles as well as to the use thereof for the treatment of cancer.
