• might be used in orthopedics as drug-releasing implants and as an alternative delivery system of chemotherapeutic agents to brain tumors [105]. In this context, Jarosz et al. found that the hydrophilic nature of nanoporous TiO2 influences the loading and release profile of drug molecules [106]. Moreover
