Ionic Liquids (ILs) are salts (with at least one organic cation), that have a melting point lower than 100º C. The interest in these compounds has been increasing as well as the number of applications where they can be used. Their first applications were on batteries and in organic synthesis and soon they started to be applied on health sciences. With this work we intend to study the biological properties of ILs based on valproate, and evaluate their modulation potential on human osteoclastogenesis.
