“…In the present study, we formulated NIC with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and the resulting nanoparticles (NPs) were coated physically with PEG. The major reason for selecting BSA was due to its immense bio-compatibility[ 20 , 21 ] and stabilizing capability [ 22 ]. Various biomedical applications including drug delivery [ [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] , [27] , [28] , [29] ], tissue engineering [ [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] ] and bio imaging, etc.…”
