Nanoporous oxide coatings , such as anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), are utilized as drug‐release platforms for up to weeks of delivery (see picture for doxorubicin, Dox). A burst‐release phase is followed by sustained release, the kinetics of which is described by an activated surface‐density‐dependent desorption model.
