Selective functionalization of mesoporous silica nanoparticles with ibuprofen and Gd(iii) chelates: a new probe for potential theranostic applications

Organo-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles, loaded with ibuprofen into the pores and functionalized on the external surface with a stable Gd(iii)-DOTA-monoamide chelate, were prepared and explored as potential theranostic probes
