Abstract

In this work, HKUST-1 and Cu-BDC nanoparticles were used as delivery systems for the early anti-COVID-19 drug, hydroxychloroquine. The antiviral MOF/drug combinations significantly reduced the infectivity of SARS-CoV-2, which can be attributed to the nanometric size of the carriers, the presence of copper in the MOF nodes, and the semi-controlled release of the drug.
