Magnetic nanoparticles have many applications in biomedicine and other technical areas. Despite their huge economic impact, there are no standardised procedures available to measure their basic magnetic properties. The International Organization for Standardization is working on a series of documents on the definition of characteristics of magnetic nanomaterials. We review previous and ongoing European research projects on characteristics of magnetic nanoparticles and present results of an online survey among European researchers.
