A possible application of aptamer-modified superparamagnetic nanoparticles for nanosurgeon. Aptamer-modified nanoparticles can be transported to
the target tissue by an external magnetic
field, where they could bind to their target cells. Subsequently the position of the external magnetic
field could be
changed and nanoparticle-bound cells can be separated from non-target cells
