Amorphous Coordination Polymer Particles. From Basic Macromolecular Science to Theranostic Applications

摘要

The advantage of the CPPs over the traditional nanoparticles is the unique properties associated to the metal-ligand units that coffer novel and interesting properties with wider spectrum of application. We anticipate that results of our research will have a profound impact on the fields of general medicine, immunology and smart drug-delivery systems. Preliminary results indicate that these new nanosystems offer platforms with low toxicity, high cellular uptake, and smart responses to an external stimulus what open a new wide variety of possibilities to be used in therapy and diagnosis.
