A novel approach in using insect-based spinach-food waste for gene targeting to cancer tissues

Abstract In our study, we prepared Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) using food waste extract of Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) larvae fed spinach (Spinacia oleracea), which is rich in iron. A coating was applied to Fe3O4 NPs containing hyperbranched spermine-polyethylene glycol-folic acid (FHSPF) and spermine...
