Morphosynthesis of complex inorganic forms using pollen grain templates

Abstract

Porous micron-sized particles of silica, calcium carbonate or calcium phosphate are prepared with complex morphologies by template-directed synthesis employing intact pollen grains; the materials adsorb and release drug molecules and can be functionalized with metallic or magnetic nanoparticles.
