PY - 2009 DA - 2009/04/01 TI - Biodegradable luminescent porous silicon nanoparticles for in vivo applications JO - Nature Materials SP - 331 EP - 336 VL - 8 IS - 4 AB - Nanomaterials that can circulate in the body hold great potential to diagnose and treat disease, but suffer from problems such as toxicity. Porous silicon nanoparticles have now been engineered to concomitantly image tumours or organs within the body, deliver therapeutics and resorb in vivo into benign components that clear renally.
