Improved Fenton Therapy Using Cancer Cell Hydrogen Peroxide

In this study, a PEGylated iron MOF nanoparticle as a new and effective agent for Fenton cancer therapy method is reported. This stable nanoparticle, which can destroy cancer cells using the cells’ H2O2 does not have the issues such as low stability, high aggregation, and poor selectivity that have been reported for similar nanoparticles.
