Current research had successfully encapsulated magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) with selective estrogen receptor drug tamoxifen citrate (TAM) using Poly (d,l-lactice-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA 75:25) via oil in water emulsion technique. TAM is a good example of a drug that is difficult to dissolve. TAM is currently approved for the treatment of hormone-sensitive and early-stage breast cancer as an adjuvant endocrine therapy. The majority of the prescription medicine in today market is made up of poorly soluble, bioavailable, and quickly metabolized and eliminated drug which is a continuously challenges up to these days. Therefore, it is imperative to overcome this disadvantages by encapsulating TAM inside PLGA together with MNP for improved drug delivery. The MNP coated with oleic acid (OA) was synthesized using co-precipitation method and it is known as OAMNP. The fabricated nanohybrid is known as TAM-PLGA-OAMNP where the TAM was encapsulated together with OAMNP within PLGA. XRD results showed that OAMNP is Fe3O4. FTIR spectra revealed that the TAM was successfully encased into the PLGA structure. TAM-PLGA-OAMNP average size is about 131 ± 28 nm as shown in TEM results. The nanohybrid nanoparticles showed the absence of hysteresis loop indicative of superparamagnetic properties
