Synthesized and characterized NPs were then applied to MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. 18FDG conjugated MNPs exhibited the cell incorporation ratio up to 30 %. As well as the characterization studies, apoptotic effects were observed depending on the cellular incorporations by the time. In conclusion, synthesized structures could have a potential as hybrid imaging agent in PET-MR imaging systems besides apoptotic effect on cancer cells. © 2012 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.en10.1007/s10967-012-2248-2info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess18FApoptosisCancer diagnosisMagnetite nanoparticlesMannose triflateArticle295317891796Q2
