A dendrimer–nanoparticle hybrid scaffold based on robust dithiocarbamate formation provides a controlled drug delivery system. These composite films are non-toxic and can incorporate variety of guests, providing sustained release over multiple uses. The system is highly modular: the process be easily tuned by altering dendrimer generation size AuNPs, generating versatile Detailed facts importance to specialist readers published as "Supporting Information".
