magneTherm ™

The off-the-shelf, flexible and robust solution to measure thermal effects of magnetic nanoparticles

The magneTherm™ system is a totally unique, very competitively priced, device which enables magnetic fluid and nanoparticle hyperthermia testing. It operates at a wide range of user-configurable frequencies in one system with no hidden extras needed.

Whilst availability of magnetic nanoparticles and their use is significantly increasing, until now there has been no commercially available system to enable hyperthermia testing of these particles in specific applications at a range of relevant frequencies and field strengths.

nanoTherics has recognised the difficulty in sourcing off-the-shelf equipment which meets this need yet still allows for flexibility in choice of frequencies (low and high) used. The magneTherm™ has been designed specifically for this purpose, operating at a wide range of frequencies with field strengths up to 20 kA/m (25 mT) all in one system with no hidden extras needed. Since the heating capacity of magnetic nanoparticles will vary, depending on size, shape and material properties, it is critical to be able to evaluate heating capacity over a broader range of frequencies.

Application examples:

  • Magnetic nanoparticles
  • Magnetic fluids
  • Nanoparticles for cancer therapy
