Functionalization of MOF-5 with mono-substituents: effects on drug delivery behavior

Abstract

experiments prove that this series of MOFs has low cytotoxicity. This study shows that the incorporation of single substituents can effectively adjust the drug delivery behaviour of MOFs, which is conducive to realization of personalized drug delivery modes. The introduction of active groups can also facilitate post-synthesis modification to achieve coupling of targeting groups. MOFs incorporated with single substituents perform favorably in terms of use as biomedical drug delivery alternative carriers in effective drug payload and flexible drug release.
