Mass and charge transfer in systems containing nanocluster molybdenum polyoxometallates with a fullerene structure

Study of acute and subacute action of iron-molybdenum nanocluster polyoxometalates

“…POMs possess the following advantageous character istics: solubility in water and the ability to absorb reversibly various organic compounds [5], form com plexes [6], and move under the influence of weak elec tric fields [5].…”

“…Unlike other prospective nanocontainers (carbon fullerenes) [7], POMs are able to decompose, forming simpler compounds of molybdenum and iron [5,6], which further participate in the metabolic processes natural for the organism.…”

Study of Safety of Molybdenum and Iron-Molybdenum Nanoclaster Polyoxometalates Intended for Targeted Delivery of Drugs

“…Candidates for the role nanocontainers or nanokernel is a group of compounds, united by the name of polyoxometalates (POM) with the structure of keplerates (buckyballs or fullerenes) [4,5]. There is a number of prerequisites for success when using this type of compounds: water solubility, an ability to reversibly absorb various organic compounds [6], to form complexes [7], an ability to decompose within a certain time [6,7] and move under the influence of weak electric fields [6].…”

Physicochemical and biochemical properties of the Keplerate-type nanocluster polyoxomolybdates as promising components for biomedical use

“…The value of D, the coefficient of oxygen diffusion in an aqueous medium given in [320], is around 2•10 −5 cm 2 /s. A comparison of this value with the effective D value of Mo 132 polyanions under electrodiffusion conditions (1.8•10 −7 cm 2 /s) [107] (POM concentration of 4•10 −4 mol/L), shows that the latter are much less mobile. For this reason, the supply of polyanions to the solution surface is more likely the limiting stage of the oxidative photodecomposition process.…”
