Drug delivery and in vitro biological effects of gum ghatti-modified hydroxyapatite nanoporous composites

The present study investigates the influence of gum ghatti (GG) concentration on the porosity of hydroxyapatite (HAP), where the final composite has been tested for the effects of drug delivery, antibacterial activity, and in vitro cytotoxicity. Following the synthesis of GG-HAP composite by a simpl...
