Self-Assembled Mucin-Containing Microcarriers via Hard Templating on CaCO3 Crystals

Porous vaterite crystals of CaCO3 are extensively used for the fabrication of self-assembled polymer-based microparticles (capsules, beads, etc.) utilized for drug delivery and controlled release. The nature of the polymer used plays a crucial role and discovery of new perspective biopolymers is ess...
