Dissolution profiles of CA (20 mM Ca2+), low Fe/Mg-CA (20 mM Ca2+, 5 µM Fe3+ and 20 mM Mg2+), and high Fe/Mg-CA (20 mM Ca2+, 25 µM Fe3+ and 60 mM Mg2+) NPs with decreasing pH. The particles were prepared in 200 µL freshly prepared DMEM media, prior to incubation at 37 °C for 30 min. Then 800 µL of DMEM media of different pHs (7.5, 7, 6.5, 6 and 5.5) was supplemented to each sample.
