The bioavailability of ciprofloxacin (CIP) is known to decrease upon administration due to its
complexation with iron present in the body. A possible way to prevent this complexation is by …

Clay minerals have opened new avenues in drug delivery, including antimicrobials, greatly
enhancing the stability and efficacy of the active payloads. Among these clay mineral hosts …

Applying nanotechnology to deliver drug could result in several benefits such as prolong
duration of action, enhancement in overall bioavailability, targeting to specific site, low initial …

In this work, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) without modification were used as an efficient
adsorbent to explore its natural adsorption capability, which showed excellent adsorption …

Halloysite nanotube is an ideal vehicle of the controlled release of drugs. In this study, we
systematically investigated the effects of acid-and heat-treatments on the physicochemical …

The present work aimed at decorating halloysite nanotubes (HNT) with magnetic Fe3O4
nanoparticles through different synthetic routes (co-precipitation, hydrothermal, and sol-gel) …

In bone disorders infections are common. The concentration of majority of antibiotics is very
low in the bone tissue. A high local dose can be obtained from the ciprofloxacin-loaded …

The sodium-modified form of fluorohectorite nanoclay (NaFh) is introduced as a potential
drug carrier, demonstrating its ability for the controlled release of the broad-spectrum …

The extensive occurrence of antibiotics (such as ciprofloxacin) in aqueous environment had
raised severe concerns due to their impacts on humans and the ecosystem. In this study, a …

Halloysite nanotubes are promising vehicles for the controlled release of drug molecules.
Here, we systematically investigated the effects of alkali activation on the physicochemical …
