Mixed-valence gold-porphyrin two-dimensional coordination networks for repurposing of chrysotherapy

Catalytic gold nanomaterials typically exhibit antibacterial properties, albeit significantly weaker than ionic gold in chrysotherapy. The inherent stability of gold nanoparticles prevents the release of gold ions, limiting their ability to achieve efficient antibacterial therapy. To address this li...
