Loading and release of the complex [Pt(DTBTA)(DMSO)Cl]Cl·CHCl3 with the 2,2′-dithiobis(benzothiazole) ligand into mesoporous silica and studies of antiproliferative activity on MCF-7 cells

Complex(1) was encapsulated on MCM41 and MCM41-NH2 mesoporous silica. The mechanism of anchoring of MCM41-NH2 on the complex(1) was reported. Study of release was performed by using UV–Vis spectroscopy. The complex(1)-conjugates were evaluated by MTT assay and cytofluorimetric assay.
