Spectrophotometric and nucleic acid-binding properties of halloysite clay nanotubes and kaolinite

Halloysite particles (HNTs) are naturally occurring aluminosilicate nanotubes of low toxicity that have shown great promise for drug and biomolecule delivery into human and animal cells. Kaolinite particles retain the same layered structure as HNT, but do not form nanotubes. In this study, the spect...
