Cytochrome c adsorption on various poly-L-glutamic acid-containing calcium phosphate particles

Open Ceramics, 2020
We synthesized novel materials at different temperatures with two types of poly-L-glutamic acid––poly-α-glutamic acid and poly-γ-glutamic acid––to confirm the effect of poly-L-glutamic acid, which exhibits hydroxyapatite (HAp) (pGlu-HAp) crystallinity ...
