Abstract
A biogenic protocol has been adopted for the formulation of magnesium ferrite nanoparticles (MFNPs) using an aqueous extract of Allium cepa (AC) as a potential reducing agent for the optimization of its properties for self-heating ability. The characterization showed a cubic structure with particle size in the range of 25–32 nm. The self-heating analysis of the ferromagnetic behavior produced enough heating within the therapeutic temperature to attain the Curie temperature (Tc). The AC concentration enhanced the properties of AC-MFNPs for effective self-heating ability by reducing the specific absorption rate.
