Abstract
This
bibliometric study investigated the public trends in the fields of
nanoparticles which is limited to drug delivery and magnetic
nanoparticles’ literature published from 1980 to October 2017. The data
were collected from the Web of Science Core Collections, and a network
analysis of research outputs was carried out to analyse the research
trends in the nanoparticles literature. Nanoparticles and its
applications are progressing in recent years. The results show that
documents in the field of nanoparticles in chemistry and material
science have improved in citation rate, as the authors were researching
in multidisciplinary zones. Top-cited documents are mainly focusing on
drug delivery, magnetic nanoparticles and iron oxide nanoparticles which
are also the top research keywords in all papers published. Top-cited
papers are mostly published in Biomaterials journal which so far has
published 12% of top-cited articles. Although research areas such as
contrast agents, quantum dots, and nanocrystals are not considered as
the top-ranked keywords in all documents, these keywords received
noticeable citations. The trends of publications on drug delivery and
magnetic nanoparticles give a general view on future research and
identify potential opportunities and challenges.
