This project will develop biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles for future generations of therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Applications include the reduction in overall toxicity of chemo- and radio- therapy by magnetic target drug delivery, enhanced ability to detect and diagnose diseases using magnetic binding/sorting techniques and an enhanced ability to repair detached retinas. The development of these products provides the potential for the development of new commercial opportunities in biotechnology and biomedical science in which Australia has an excellent track record. The project will also enhance Australia's capabilities in both nanotechnologiocal and biotechnological sciences.

该项目将为未来的治疗和诊断应用开发生物相容性磁性纳米颗粒。应用包括通过磁性靶向药物递送降低化疗和放疗的总体毒性，使用磁性结合/分选技术增强检测和诊断疾病的能力，以及增强修复脱落视网膜的能力。 这些产品的开发为澳大利亚在生物技术和生物医学科学方面开发新的商业机会提供了潜力，澳大利亚在这方面有着良好的记录。该项目还将提高澳大利亚在纳米技术和生物技术科学方面的能力。
