Research Abstract |
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) is a class of nanomaterials that have attracted considerable attention for their potential utility as drug and biomolecule delivery. In this study, the synthesis of the anticancer drug, (5-fluorouracil (5-FU))/LDH and the modification of the 5-FU/LDH with various biomolecule (biomolecule/5-FU/LDH) have been investigated. Moreover, the cytotoxicity assay of the both LDHs for various mammalian cells has also been studied. The 5-FU/LDH was characterized by various techniques such as XRD and FT-IR that demonstrated the successful intercalation of 5-FU into the LDH. Then, the surface of the 5-FU/LDH was modified with biomolecules. After the modification, the 5-FU/LDH maintained its original LDH structure. The 5-FU/LDH and biomolecule/5-FU/LDH have 1.9 and 7.7 times better drug efficacy than naked 5-FU. The biomolecule/5-FU/LDH exhibited a quick cytotoxicity effect compared with the 5-FU/LDH. The present results demonstrate that the biomolecule modified LDH has the great potential of biocompatible drugcarrier.
