Metal-based magnetic materials have been used in different fields due to their particular physical or chemical properties. The original magnetic properties can be influenced by the composition of constituent metals. As utilized in different application fields, such as imaging monitoring, thermal treatment, and combined integration in cancer therapies, fabricated metal-based magnetic materials can be doped with target metal elements in research. Furthermore, there is one possible new trend in human activities and basic cancer treatment. As has appeared in characterizations such as magnetic resonance, catalytic performance, thermal efficiency, etc., structural information about the real morphology, size distribution, and composition play important roles in its further applications. In cancer studies, metal-based magnetic materials are considered one appropriate material because of their ability to penetrate biological tissues, interact with cellular components, and induce noxious effects. The disruptions of cytoskeletons, membranes, and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) further influence the efficiency of metal-based magnetic materials in related applications. While combining with cancer cells, these magnetic materials are not only applied in imaging monitoring focus areas but also could give the exact area information in the cure process while integrating ultrasound treatment. Here, we provide an overview of metal-based magnetic materials of various types and then their real applications in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) field and cancer cell treatments. We will demonstrate advancements in using ultrasound fields co-worked with MRI or ROS approaches. Besides iron oxides, there is a super-family of heterogeneous magnetic materials used as magnetic agents, imaging materials, catalytic candidates in cell signaling and tissue imaging, and the expression of cancer cells and their high sensitivity to chemical, thermal, and mechanical stimuli. On the other hand, the interactions between magnetic candidates and cancer tissues may be used in drug delivery systems. The materials’ surface structure characteristics are introduced as drug loading substrates as much as possible. We emphasize that further research is required to fully characterize the mechanisms of underlying ultrasounds induced together, and their appropriate relevance for materials toxicology and biomedical applications.

The growing interest in magnetic materials as a universal tool has been shown by an increasing number of scientific publications regarding magnetic materials and its various applications. Substantial progress has been recently made on the synthesis of magnetic iron oxide particles in terms of size, chemical composition, and surface chemistry. In addition, surface layers of polymers, silica, biomolecules, etc., on magnetic particles, can be modified to obtain affinity to target molecules. The developed magnetic iron oxide particles have been significantly utilized for diagnostic applications, such as sample preparations and biosensing platforms, leading to the selectivity and sensitivity against target molecules and the ease of use in the sensing systems. For the process of sample preparations, the magnetic particles do assist in target isolation from biological environments, having non-specific molecules and undesired molecules. Moreover, the magnetic particles can be easily applied for various methods of biosensing devices, such as optical, electrochemical, and magnetic phenomena-based methods, and also any methods combined with microfluidic systems. Here we review the utilization of magnetic materials in the isolation/preconcentration of various molecules and cells, and their use in various techniques for diagnostic biosensors that may greatly contribute to future innovation in point-of-care and high-throughput automation systems.
