- Additional information
- This paper offers a novel method to solve a long-standing problem (more than 10 years) on how to utilise reverse microemulsion methods to synthesise porous monodispersed core-shell nanocomposites smaller than 100 nm. This limit was hindering the application for controlled-release drug delivery. We have subsequently recruited a PhD student (2020) to fully explore the potential of prepared core-shell nanocomposite for use in cancer therapy, hyperthermia and MRI applications.
