Apoferritin and Apoferritin-Capped Metal Nanoparticles Inhibit Arginine Kinase of <i>Trypanosoma</i> <i>brucei</i>

Apoferritin and Apoferritin-Capped Metal Nanoparticles Inhibit Arginine Kinase of <i>Trypanosoma</i> <i>brucei</i>

The aim of this study was to explore the inhibitory potential of apoferritin or apoferritin-capped metal nanoparticles (silver, gold and platinum) against <i>Trypanosoma</i><i>brucei</i> arginine kinase. The arginine kinase activity was determined in the presence and absence...
