Injection of functional nanomagnets in human blood enables selective removal of disease-causing metals, overdosed drugs, and proteins at the (sub-)nanomolar level. This direct in vivo extraction provides a powerful alternative to classical pharmaceutical treatments as disease-causing agents are removed from the organism rather than treating symptoms from exposure. A number of clinically relevant assays demonstrate blood compatibility of the functional nanomagnets.
