Designing pH-Dependent Systems Based on Nanoscale Calcium Carbonate for the Delivery of an Antitumor Drug

Materials based on calcium carbonate (CaCO<sub>3</sub>) are widely used in biomedical research (e.g., as carriers of bioactive substances). The biocompatibility of CaCO<sub>3</sub> and dependence of its stability on pH make these materials promising transporters of therapeuti...
