Promising psyllium-based composite containing TiO2 nanoparticles as aspirin-carrier matrix

Promising psyllium-based composite containing TiO2 nanoparticles as aspirin-carrier matrix

Composite nanomaterials represent a new trend in the biomedical field. Coupling inorganic/organic constituents with non-toxicity/biocompatibility properties leads to develop the new systems having special characteristics that can be used in various bio-applications. This paper describes the preparat...
