Hybrid CaCO3-mucin crystals: Effective approach for loading and controlled release of cationic drugs
Vaterite CaCO3 crystals are actively used as a biocompatible and degradable matrix for encapsulation of fragile biomacromolecules. However, the incorporation of small cationic drugs into the crystals remains awkward due to a poor binding of these drugs to the crystal surface and scarce retention ins...
