Glazer group's Journal of Materials Chemistry B publication chosen as a HOT article

Prof. Edith Glazer's publication titled "Light-Sensitive Ruthenium Complex-Loaded Cross-Linked Polymeric Nanoassemblies for the Treatment of Cancer" was selected as a Hot Article for 2015 in the Journal of Materials Chemistry B, and as such it has been included in the Hot Article 2015 web collection, which can be viewed here.  This publication reports the preparation and analysis of polymer nanoassemblies as potential carrier systems for cytotoxic ruthenium complexes.  Glazer and coworkers found that electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions with the complexes impact release rates and percentages, as well as biological activity.
