CaCO<sub>3</sub> as an Environmentally Friendly Renewable Material for Drug Delivery Systems: Uptake of HSA-CaCO<sub>3</sub> Nanocrystals Conjugates in Cancer Cell Lines

CaCO<sub>3</sub> as an Environmentally Friendly Renewable Material for Drug Delivery Systems: Uptake of HSA-CaCO<sub>3</sub> Nanocrystals Conjugates in Cancer Cell Lines

Chemical and biochemical functionalization of nanoparticles (NPs) can lead to an active cellular uptake enhancing their efficacy thanks to the targeted localization in tumors. In the present study calcium carbonate nano-crystals (CCNs), stabilized by an alcohol dehydration method, were successfully...
