Surface Heterogeneous Nucleation-Mediated Release of Beta-Carotene from Porous Silicon
We demonstrate that the release of a poorly soluble molecule from nanoporous carriers is a complex process that undergoes heterogeneous surface nucleation events even under significantly diluted release conditions, and that those events heavily affect the dynamics of release. Using beta-carotene and...
