Question:

In their paper ‘Mesoporous silica nanoparticles in biomedical applications’, Li Zongxi et al. (Chem. Soc. Rev., 2012, 41, 2590) discuss the utility of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) as supports for the delivery of therapeutic drugs in the body. What are the properties of MSNPs that make them particularly suitable for these applications? Describe how the rate of drug release is controlled. Outline the synthetic methods used to produce the MSNPs and identify the chemists who first synthesized MSNPs.
