Mussel-Inspired Polydopamine Composite Mesoporous Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles: An Exploration of Potential Metal-Ion Loading Platform and In Vitro Bioactivity
Abstract:Exploring new approaches to realize the possibility of
incorporating
biologically active elements into mesoporous silicate bioactive glass
nanoparticles (MBG NPs) and guaranteeing their meso- structural integrity
and dimensional stability has become an attractive and interesting
challenge in biomaterials science. We present a postgrafting strategy
for introducing different metal elements into MBG NPs. This strategy
is mediated by polydopamine (PDA) coating, achieving uniform loading
of copper or copper–cobalt … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
