Fill 'em up : The metal carboxylates MIL‐100 and MIL‐101 act as porous matrices (see picture; MIL=Materials of Institut Lavoisier) for drug‐delivery systems using Ibuprofen as a model substrate. Very large amounts of the drug could be incorporated, up to an unprecedented capacity of 1.4 g of drug per gram of porous solid for MIL‐101, and the total release of Ibuprofen was achieved under physiological conditions in 3 (MIL‐100) and 6 days (MIL‐101).
