platinum-based
Using precious metal
Platinum-based describes something that uses platinum as its primary or essential component.
Most commonly refers to chemotherapy drugs like cisplatin, where platinum compounds attack cancer cells: platinum-based chemotherapy, platinum-based treatment.
Also describes catalytic converters and other industrial applications where platinum serves as the active element.
