      “We were able to select a combination of elements that enhances the therapeutic and luminescent properties of the compounds,” said Candidate of Chemical Sciences Marina Uvarova of the Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

      Scientists believe their discovery will help in the future to develop more precise and safer cancer drugs, and to use such compounds for diagnostics and monitoring of cells.
