Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Magnetic nanomaterials are extremely versatile and can be used in multiple applications. However, there are many challenges for nanoparticle systems in biomedicine—both regulatory and related to the complex bodily fluids that make it difficult to control nanomaterials for biomedical applications. This issue specificially adresses these challenges: How can one control magnetic nanoparticles through external fields? How can we control the interface of nanomaterials and their aggregation within complex fluids? The manipulation and control of magnetic nanoparticles and nanomaterials by external fields and environments is the focus of this Special Issue. This can be medical in vivo or in vitro studies of drug delivery agents based on magnetic delivery or hyperthermia and contrast agent applications for magnetic resonance imaging. Other magnetic separation processes and magnetic nanorobot applications are welcome as well.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Magnetochemistry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2200 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
