Abstract
The invention relates to nanocrystalline magnetic particles consisting of gnetic iron oxide core of Fe.sub.3 O.sub.4, gamma-Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 or mixtures thereof and an envelope chemisorbed to said core, the method for preparation of these particles as well as the use thereof in medical diagnostics and/or therapy. The magnetic particles, according to the invention, are characterized by composition of the coating material of natural or synthetic glycosaminoglycans and/or their derivatives with molecular weights of 500 Da to 250,000 Da, if necessary, covalently cross-linked with appropriate cross-linking agents and/or modified by specific additives.
