Moisture resistant and biofriendly CD-MOF nanoparticles obtained via cholesterol shielding

Abstract

A facile and one step-method was developed to enhance the water stability of CD-MOF nanoparticles through surface modification with cholesterol. CD-MOFs were able to maintain their cubic crystalline structures even after 24 h of incubation, well tolerated in vivo and could increase up to 4 times the blood half-life of DOX.
