Hydroxamic Acid-Containing Hydrogels for Nonabsorbed Iron Chelation Therapy:  Synthesis, Characterization, and Biological Evaluation

Iron overload is a severe clinical condition and can be largely prevented by the use of iron-specific chelating agents. A successful iron chelator needs to be orally active, nontoxic, and selective. In this study, hydrogels containing pendant hydroxamic acid groups have been synthesized as potential...
