Abstract
Multifunctional SiO2 microtubes for targeted drug delivery are produced with precise control over shape and size by combining lithography and electrochemical etching. The hollow core is loaded with a lipophilic anticancer drug generating nanopills and an antibody is conjugated to the external surface for cancer cell targeting. Results demonstrate selective killing of neuroblastoma cells that express the cognate receptor.
