Abstract
Quaternary ammonium functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (OctaAmmonium-POSS®) units, widely employed as additives in ceramic and polymeric systems, possess many attributes which make them attractive as biocompatible drug carriers: nanoscale size, three-dimensional functionality, efficient cellular uptake, low toxicity, and high solubility.
