Near-infrared light-induced dissociation of zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) with encapsulated CuS nanoparticles and their application as a therapeutic nanoplatform

Abstract

Incorporation of CuS nanoparticles into the framework of ZIF-8 provides a chance to integrate near-infrared (NIR) light/low pH triggered release and chemo-photothermal therapy into one system. For the first time, we observed that the framework of ZIF-8 could be disintegrated at pH 7.4 under NIR laser irradiation.
