Researchers Discover Porous Polymeric Materials Increasing Efficiency of Traditional Photocatalysts in Cancer Treatment

Researchers Discover Porous Polymeric Materials Increasing Efficiency of Traditional Photocatalysts in Cancer Treatment

Researchers at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) in Castellón have found porous polymeric materials that increase the efficiency of traditional photocatalysts in the treatment of cancer. Photodynamic therapy consists of introducing photocatalysts into tumour cells in such a way that when radiation (in the form of light) is applied, the photocatalysts destroy these cells as a result of the production of a reactive agent known as singlet oxygen.
