Pectin‐decorated selenium nanoparticles as a nanocarrier of curcumin to achieve enhanced physicochemical and biological properties

In this study, the authors developed pectin‐stabilised selenium nanoparticles (pectin‐SeNPs) for curcumin (Cur) encapsulation and evaluated their physicochemical properties and biological activities. Results showed that pectin‐SeNPs and Cur‐loaded pectin‐SeNPs (pectin‐SeNPs@Cur) exhibited monodisper...
