Abstract:Understanding the intermolecular interactions between antibiotic drugs and hemoglobin is crucial in biological systems. The current study aimed to investigate the preparation of chitosan/polysorbate-80/tripolyphosphate (CS-PS/TPP) nanocomposite as a potential drug carrier for Ciprofloxacin-HCl drug (CFX), intended for controlled release formulation and further used to interact with bovine hemoglobin. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis−differential thermal analysis (TGA-… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
