Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA)—obtained through an ammonia ‐ triggered polymerization of dopamine—is used to coat mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and subsequently the inorganic core is readily removed by dispersion in water. This innovative approach allows for the successful fabrication of novel drug nanocarriers with enhanced biocompatibilities that avoid later bio ‐ contamination of silica nanoparticles. More information can be found in the Communication by D. Ruiz ‐ Molina et al. on page 2753 ff. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
