Firstly, 3D porous Co-Ni films were prepared as substrates for the subsequent electrodeposition of the alginate biopolymer. Cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic and potentiostatic studies were performed to establish the best conditions to obtain porous Co-Ni films. The electrochemical experiments were carried out in an electrolyte containing the metal salts and ammonium chloride at low pHs. In a second stage, the electrochemical deposition of alginate as a biocompatible polymer drug delivery carrier was performed. The characteristics of the alginate matrix were investigated in terms of electrochemical properties, morphology and drug release. The hybrid material obtained showed soft-magnetic behavior and drug release indicating its suitability to be used as a steerable magnetic drug delivery device.7 p.application/pdfeng(c) García-Torres, José et al., 2015Deposició (Metal·lúrgia)ElectroquímicaHemoglobinaPlatingElectrochemistryHemoglobinAlginate electrodeposition onto three-dimensional porous Co-Ni films as drug delivery platforminfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6448042019-09-13info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
