Metal-Containing Molecules and Nanomaterials
Since the discovery and successful deployment of salvarsan to treat syphilis, as well as cisplatin as a cancer drug, the field of metallodrugs has been flourishing. In addition to therapeutic applications, metals and metal-containing molecules have properties, such as an electrochemical or an optical signal, that can be used to diagnose biologically relevant molecules or unravel cellular metabolis...
