Abstract:: ... A new copper zinc complex (CZpbi), [(bipyridinyl)₂Cu-μ-pbi-Zn(pbi)](ClO₄)₂, pbi = 2-(2-pyridyl)-benzimidazole, was synthesized to mimic copper zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD). CZpbi was then encapsulated onto a dye (fluorescein isothiocyanate, FITC) functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) where MSN serves as a nanofactory platform for delivering the catalytic action of the center ...
