Abstract The purpose of our project was to test if Alginate would prove as a better alternative to metal-based nanoparticles for drug delivery through the consequence of reducing toxicity within Nanoparticle drug delivery systems, in turn preventing the possibility of contracting a variety of diseases. Because of the variety of benefits to these drug delivery systems, this could significantly aid in the evolution of drug delivery.
