A supramolecular material for dual-modal imaging and targeted cancer therapy

A supermolecular drug nanovehicle is prepared via the co-intercalation of folic acid (FA) and doxorubicin (DOX) into Gd-doped layered double hydroxides (LDHs), followed by the adsorption of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), which serves as a promising candidate in dual-modal imaging and targeted anticancer therapy.253
