Cell culture procedure:

Human lung carcinoma (A549) was obtained from National Centre for Cell Sciences, Pune, India.

Cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM: GIBCO, Invitrogen, Carlbad,

CA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS: Himedia Laboratories, Mumbai, India) and

antibiotics (100 U ml-1 penicillin and 100 μg ml-1 streptomycin) in a humidified atmosphere of 5%

CO2 at 37 °C. The desired number of cells were seeded in complete DMEM and incubated at culture

conditions for overnight, followed by treatment with MLHN.

After exposure of AC magnetic field to the controls and MLHN treated cells, cells were cultured

for 48 h. Then, the media containing MLHN was carefully removed and the cells were further

incubated with 0.5 ml of MTT solution (0.5mg/ml, Sigma, USA) at culture conditions for 2 h. The

supernatant was aspirated and 1 ml of DMSO was added to each culture dish to solubilize the MTT

crystals. The crystals were thoroughly dissolved and further diluted (1: 10) with dimethyl sulfoxide

(DMSO). 200 μl of above solution from P-30 culture dishes was transferred to 96 well plates and the

blue colour was read in a microplate reader (Tecan infinite 200 PRO, Switzerland) at 544 nm. The

cell viability was calculated by comparing the absorption of treated cells to that of control, which was

defined as 100%.

Fig. S4. Field dependence of magnetization (M vs. H) plots of hybrid nanostructures (prepared with

6:1 weight ratio of AFLN and CFMN) at 5 and 300 K (inset: expanded M vs. H plot of MLHN at low

field region). The hybrid nanostructures with 6:1 weight ratio of AFLN and CFMN were prepared

using 5 mg CFMN, 30 mg AFLN, 0.33 ml EDC and 0.67 ml NHS. The maximum magnetizations of

hybrid nanostructures prepared with 6:1 weight ratio of AFLN and CFMN is slightly lower than that

of hybrid nanostructures prepared with 4:1 weight ratio of AFLN and CFMN. This is mainly due to

the presence of higher amount of non-magnetic AFLN in the hybrid sample.

Fig. S5. Emission spectra of MLHN prepared with 6:1 weight ratios of AFLN and CFMN recorded at

excitation wavelength of 260 nm using 375 nm filter. The luminescent intensity of MLHN prepared

with 6:1 weight ratios of AFLN and CFMN is higher than that of MLHN prepared with 4:1 weight

ratios of AFLN and CFMN. This enhancement in luminescent intensity can be attributed to the

presence of larger amount of AFLN in the hybrid sample.
