Abstract

The article explains the formation, as well as the evaluation of a new supramolecular lanthanide complex, which is shown to act as luminescent contract agent for various purposes. The Eu(III) emission of the complex is shown to be independent of the pH value and hence can be used for the imaging of the damaged bone structure.

Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of Fe(III)-carboxylate nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs) with the MIL-101 structure is reported. The potential use of the newly obtained NMOF-based nanodelivery vehicles for optical imaging and anticancer therapy is also demonstrated in vitro by using HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells.
