Immobilization in polyvinyl alcohol decreases SAR of multicore nanomag-D MNP by a factor of two. SAR values of multicore nanomag-D MNP with differently functionalized PEG300 in water suspension and immobilized in 1% agar and 10% PVA. Additionally, hydrodynamic diameters (Øhydr.) for each MNP type are shown. Values in brackets indicate core size determined by TEM micrographs. Error bars indicate standard deviation of three independent measurements.
