Uh, science + microwave -> i am intrigued. Thanks for bringing this up. Ill tell the our bead specialists to throw an eye on it.
Cheers

Dear Isaac,

Thanks for pointing out the publication. Indeed it might be a neat way to make the core particles (I might give it a try soon). What I noticed in the publication is that the MNPs are relatively large (~50-100 nm) which is bigger than what we get with the coprecipitation protocol. In principle, the co-precipitation is also quite quick (synthesis takes ~15 minutes in large scale), the part that takes the longest is washing. Nevertheless, it sounds like a simple way to make the core particles possibly even easier than with the coprep method.

Cheers,

T.
