Preparation and application of magnetic microsphere carriers

Abstract

Magnetic microsphere carriers have received considerable attention, primarily because of their wide applications in the fields of biomedicine and bioengineering. In this paper, preparation methods, surface modification and application of magnetic carriers are reviewed. Emphasis will be placed on recent biological and biomedical developments and trends such as enzyme immobilization, cell isolation, protein purification, target drugs and DNA separation.
