Mg-MOF biodegradable coatings for drug delivery on Mg temporal implants KU Leuven
Metal organic frameworks (MOF’s) are novel materials designed for different applications with a growing interest in the last 10 years [1]. Horcajada et al. showed a drug delivery system based of MOF as drug nanocarriers, applying iron and 5 different organic linkers loading them with ibuprofen among other drugs [2]. Mg can also be used as the metal in the MOF structure (Mg-MOF), which has been successfully synthesised hydrothermally with DHTA ...
