Rough hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles as carrier for agarwood oil to treat cancer cells

Natural products such as agarwood oil (AO) are found to exhibit potential anticancer properties. They provide safer and better alternative to the conventional drugs used in chemotherapy treatment. However, due to the limitation of AO in terms of volatility, stability and solubility in water, a sui...
