A magnetically controllable, or guided, ferrocarbon particle composition and methods of use and production are disclosed. The composition may optionally carry biologically active substances that have been adsorbed onto the particle. The composition comprises composite, volume-compounded particles of 0.1 to 5.0 &mgr;m in size, and preferably between 0.5 and 5.0 &mgr;m, containing 1.0 to 95.0% by mass of carbon, and preferably from about 20% to about 60%. The particles may be produced by mechanical milling of a mixture of iron and carbon powders. The obtained particles are optionally placed in a solution of a biologically active substance to adsorb the substance onto the particles. The composition is generally administered in suspension.

Magnetically responsive composition

A magnetically controllable, or guided, carrier composition and methods of use and production are disclosed, the composition for carrying biologically active substances to a treatment zone in a body under control of a magnetic field. The composition comprises composite, volume-compounded paclitaxel-adsorbed particles of 0.2 to 5.0 &mgr;m in size, and preferably between 0.5 and 5.0 &mgr;m, containing 1.0 to 95.0% by mass of carbon, and preferably from about 20% to about 60%. The particles are produced by mechanical milling of a mixture of iron and carbon powders. The obtained particles are placed in a solution of a biologically active substance to adsorb the substance onto the particles. The composition is generally administered in suspension. Magnetic carrier particles having therapeutic quantities of adsorbed paclitaxel, doxorubicin, Tc,, and antisense-C Myc oligonucleotide, an hematoporphyrin derivative, 6-mercaptopurine, Amphotericin B, and Camptothecin have been produced using this invention. Magnetic carrier particles having diagnostic quantities of adsorbed Re,and Re,have also been produced using this invention.

Magnetically responsive compositions for carrying biologically active substances and methods of production and use

A magnetically controllable, or guided, carrier composition and methods of use and production are disclosed, the composition for carrying biologically active substances to a treatment zone in a body under control of a magnetic field. The composition comprises composite, volume-compounded ferrocarbon particles of 0.2 to 5.0 .mu.m in size, and preferably between 1.0 and 4.0 .mu.m, containing 1.0 to 95.0% by volume of carbon, and preferably between about 20 and 50%. The particles are produced by a joint deformation of a mechanical mixture of iron and carbon powders. The obtained particles are placed in a solution of a biologically active substance to absorb the substance onto the particles. The combination is administered in suspension.
