<p>Biomimetic hydroxyapatite nanocrystals are an active carrier for <em>Salmonella</em> bacteriophages</p>

Abstract

Our results evidenced the important contribution of biomimetic HA nanocrystals: they act as an excellent carrier for bacteriophage delivery and enhance its biological characteristics. This study confirmed the significant role of the mineral HA when it is complexed with biological entities like bacteriophages, as it has been shown for molecules such as lactoferrin.
