Functionalized Halloysite Nanotubes as Potential Drug Carriers
The aim of the work was to examine the possibility of using modified halloysite nanotubes as a gentamicin carrier and to determine the usefulness of the modification in terms of the effect on the amount of the drug attached, its release time, but also on

Stop 2 Kainui silt loam and Naike clay, Gordonton Rd [PDF]
At this stop are several remarkable features both stratigraphic and pedological, and a “two-storied” soil, the Kainui silt loam alongside (in just a few places) the Naike clay. Both soils are Ultisols. The sequence of tephra beds and buried soil horizons

Encapsulation of α-Lipoic Acid in Halloysite Nanotubes
A nanocomposite material based on halloysite and α-lipoic acid was studied. The kinetics of the degradation process of α-lipoic acid under the influence of ultraviolet radiation and thermal stress in its native state and in the composition of a ...
