Toward Highly Dispersed Mesoporous Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles With High Cu Concentration Using Cu/Ascorbic Acid Complex as Precursor

Copper (Cu) ions have a variety of advantageous biological functionalities, such as proangiogenic and bactericidal activities. Given the intrinsic biodegradability and biocompatibility, silicate-based mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) are considered as promising platforms for the deli...
