Imaging and treating cancer with an iridum-based prodrug

In our Chemical 新月直播app下载 Pick of the Week, a novel cancer-targeting iridium complex was demonstrated to act as an effective radiosensitiser for image-guided cancer radiochemotherapy.

Greener, cheaper MOF synthesis

Our ChemSci Pick of the Week demonstrates the scalable synthesis of metal-organic-frameworks (MOFs) using ultrasonic or acoustic frequencies 鈥� rather than solvent-based approaches.

Splitting water with light

Our ChemSci Pick of the Week describes a metal oxide photocatalyst that can efficiently use sunlight to produce hydrogen from water, which could help tackle environmental issues and resource shortages.
