The chitosan functionalized MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized using thermal decomposition method. The morphological, structural and magnetic properties of obtained chitosan functionalized magnetic nanoparticles were studied to assess the feasibility for biomedical applications. The crystallite size of nanoparticles observed using XRD was 15nm. Functional group attachment to surface of nanoparticles was analyzed using FTIR. Particle size of nanoparticles was studied by TEM analysis and it showed that particles were roughly spherical. Thermal stability and bonding strength of ligands to the surface of material was determined using TGA. The magnetization of chitosan functionalized nanoparticles observed by VSM is 56emu/g and VSM showed no coercivity and remanence existence, stipulating the super-paramagnetic behavior. The cell viability of chitosan functionalized nanoparticles was above 85% at concentration up to the 1.0mg mL-1 on mouse fibroblast cell line i.e. L929 cell line. These studies revealed that, MnFe2O4 nanoparticles are potential materials for biomedical applications.
