- Editorial: Emerging polyoxometalates with biological, biomedical, and health applicationsPublication . Aureliano, Manuel; Mitchell, Scott G.; Yin, PanchaoThe biomedical application of metals, including platinum (Pt), lithium (Li), tungstate (W), gold (Au) or vanadium (V), among others, has become an important and a rapidly growing branch of science (Bertinat et al., 2018; Yeo et al., 2018; Vosahlikova et al., 2020; Ścibior et al., 2020; Silva et al., 2021; Pena et al., 2022; Ochoa, 2022). Besides the wellcharacterized platinum drugs, bio-active metal-based complexes and clusters, such as gold compounds and polyoxometalates (POMs), as well as metal-based nanoparticles have shown demonstrable anti-cancer, anti-viral and anti-bacterial activities (Bertinat et al., 2018; Yeo et al., 2018; Soria-Carrera et al., 2020; Vosahlikova et al., 2020; Ścibior et al., 2020; Silva et al., 2021; Aureliano et al., 2022a; Pena et al., 2022; Ochoa, 2022; Soria Carrera et al., 2022). The biological and biomedical application of POMs–in the form of cluster ions, hybrid materials, and POM-based nanoparticles - has tripled in the last decade (Pimpão et al., 2020).
