Synthesis and characterization of a clay-alginate nanocomposite for the controlled release of 5-Flurouracil

The scope of the present study is the synthesis and characterization of a nanocomposite based on natural bentonite clay and sodium alginate as a drug delivery system. The nanocomposite was prepared by the grafted copolymerization of alginate, acrylamide and modified bentonite. The characterization o...
