Enhanced Antioxidant Activity under Biomimetic Settings of Ascorbic Acid Included in Halloysite Nanotubes

Enhanced Antioxidant Activity under Biomimetic Settings of Ascorbic Acid Included in Halloysite Nanotubes

Antioxidant activity of native vitamin C (ascorbic acid, AH<sub>2</sub>) is hampered by instability in solution. Selective loading of AH<sub>2</sub> into the inner lumen of natural halloysite nanotubes (HNT) yields a composite nanoantioxidant (HNT/AH<sub>2</sub>),...
