Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the deadliest malignant disorder globally, with a significant mortality rate. The development of tolerance throughout cancer treatment and non-specific targeting limits the drug's response. Currently, nano therapy provides an interdisciplinary area for imaging, diagnosis, and targeted drug delivery for BC. Several overexpressed biomarkers, proteins, and receptors are identified in BC, which can be potentially targeted by using nanomaterial for drug/gene/immune/photo-responsive therapy and bio-imaging. In recent applications, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) have shown tremendous attention to the researcher because they combine selective drug delivery and imaging functionalities. IONs can be efficaciously functionalised for potential application in BC therapy and diagnosis. In this review, we explored the current application of IONs in chemotherapeutics delivery, gene delivery, immunotherapy, photo-responsive therapy, and bio-imaging for BC based on their molecular mechanism. In addition, we also highlighted the effect of IONs' size, shape, dimension, and functionalization on BC targeting and imaging. To better comprehend the functionalization potential of IONs, this paper provides an outline of BC cellular development. IONs for BC theranostic are also reviewed based on their clinical significance and future aspects.

Abstract
The multiscale structural and rheological features of a series of dilute and semidilute low-methoxyl (LM) pectin solutions and a representative pectin/calcium sol-gel sample were systematically explored using a comprehensive combination of dynamic (DLS) and static light/X-ray scattering (SALS/SLS/SAXS), rheology, and microscopy (OM/SEM) characterizations. The study focused on the rarely explored colloidal aspect of LM pectin solutions and sol-gel transition, in contrast to the polymeric features extensively explored in previous studies. A highly uniform colloid-like, micron-sized agglomerate species was revealed in dilute solutions, with a progressively increased degree of flocculation in the semidilute regime (≥1.5 wt%). The agglomerate species in these solutions was resolved to be formed by random associations of individual pectin chains (L = 30 nm, r = 0.4 nm). Adding a critical amount of Ca2+ (10 wt%) to a semidilute solution (2 wt%) has an instant and pronounced effect of enhancing the agglomerate flocculation and resulting in a locally jammed state. Meanwhile, the agglomerate interior underwent microstructural transformation, leading to hierarchical structures defined by intermediate (spherical) aggregate species (Rg,aggregate ≈ 150 nm) and its packing cylindrical bundle (d ≈ 4 nm) composed of five pectin chains. Novel rheological features observed during the LM pectin/Ca2+ sol-gel transition include the following: the dynamic modulus data exhibited excellent TTS (gelling time/relaxation time superposition) as previously observed for weakly attractive colloidal gels. Three yield points were noticed for the final gel sample, suggested to mark the bond breaking of the cluster network, cage breaking of the resulting jammed flocculates, and, eventually, breakup of a flocculate into smaller agglomerates with increasing stress amplitude.

Abstract
Since their discovery, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have become materials with great potential, especially considering the applications of biomedical sciences. A series of works on the preparation, characterization, and application of MNPs has shown that the biological activity of such materials depends on their size, shape, core, and shell nature. Some of the most commonly used MNPs are those based on a magnetite core. On the other hand, synthetic biopolymers are used as a protective surface coating for these nanoparticles. This review describes the advances in the field of polymer-coated MNPs for protein immobilization over the past decade. General methods of MNP preparation and protein immobilization are presented. The most extensive section of this article discusses the latest work on the use of polymer-coated MNPs for the physical and chemical immobilization of three types of proteins: enzymes, antibodies, and serum proteins. Where possible, the effectiveness of the immobilization and the activity and use of the immobilized protein are reported. Finally, the information available in the peer-reviewed literature and the application perspectives for the MNP-immobilized protein systems are summarized as well.

Abstract
Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 ferrofluids were produced from natural sand for magnetic sensors and radar absorbing materials. The X-ray diffraction data showed that the Zn partially substituted the Mn and Fe ions to construct a spinel structure. The increasing Zn composition decreased the lattice parameters of the structure. The transmission electron microscopy images showed that the filler Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 nanoparticles tended to agglomerate in three dimensions. Lognormal and mass fractal models were used to fit the small-angle X-ray scattering data of the ferrofluids demonstrated that the ferrofluids formed chain-like structures with a fractal dimension of 1.12–1.67 that was constructed from primary particles with sizes of 3.6–4.1 nm. The filler, surfactant, and carrier liquid of the ferrofluids were confirmed by the functional groups of the metal oxides, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, and H2O, respectively. The secondary particles contributed to the saturation magnetization of the Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 ferrofluids. The Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 ferrofluids demonstrated excellent performance as magnetic sensors with high stability, especially compared with MnFe2O4 ferrofluids. Furthermore, the ferrofluids exhibited excellent radar absorbing materials. The Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 ferrofluids prepared in this work may serve as a future platform for advancing magnetic sensors and radar absorbing materials.

Abstract
This report introduces both synthesis and in vitro biological behaviour of dual magnetic-fluorescent silica nanoparticles. The amino group-decoration of 78 nm sized silica nanoparticles enables their efficient internalization into motoneurons, which is visualized by the red fluorescence arising from [Ru(dipy)3]2+ complexes encapsulated into a silica matrix. The internalized nanoparticles are predominantly located in the cell cytoplasm as revealed by confocal microscopy imaging. The magnetic function of the nanoparticles resulted from the incorporation of 17 nm sized superparamagnetic iron oxide cores into the silica matrix, enabling their responsivity to magnetic fields. Fluorescence analysis revealed the "on-off" switching of Ca2+ influx under the application and further removal of the permanent magnetic field. This result for the first time highlights the movement of the nanoparticles within the cell cytoplasm in the permanent magnetic field as a promising tool to enhance the neuronal activity of motoneurons.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging using fluorinated contrast agents (19F MRI) enables to achive highcontrast in images due to the negligible fluorine background in living tissues. In this pilot study, we developed new biocompatible, temperature-responsive, and easily synthesized polymeric nanogels containing a sufficient concentration of magnetically equivalent fluorine atoms for 19F MRI purposes. The structure of the nanogels is based on amphiphilic copolymers containing two blocks, a hydrophilic poly[ N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide] (PHPMA) or poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMeOx) block, and a thermoresponsive poly[ N(2,2difluoroethyl)acrylamide] (PDFEA) block. The thermoresponsive properties of the PDFEA block allow us to control the process of nanogel self-assembly upon its heating in an aqueous solution. Particle size depends on the copolymer composition, and the most promising copolymers with longer thermoresponsive blocks form nanogels of suitable size for angiogenesis imaging or the labeling of cells (approximately 120 nm). The in vitro 19F MRI experiments reveal good sensitivity of the copolymer contrast agents, while the nanogels were proven to be noncytotoxic for several cell lines.

Abstract
Recent experimental results using in particular small-angle scattering to characterize the self-assembly of mainly hard spherical nanoparticles into higher ordered structures ranging from fractal aggregates to ordered assemblies are reviewed. The crucial control of interparticle interactions is discussed, from chemical surface-modification, or the action of additives like depletion agents, to the generation of directional patches and the use of external fields. It is shown how the properties of interparticle interactions have been used to allow inducing and possibly controlling aggregation, opening the road to the generation of colloidal molecules or potentially metamaterials. In the last part, studies of the microstructure of polymer nanocomposites as an application of volume-spanning and stress-carrying aggregates are discussed.
