Anticancer Activity of New Copper (II) Complexes with 6-Thiguanine Drug

Abstract: A new complex has been synthesized of Cu (II) complex with 6-thioguanine and phyico-chemical characterized by amperometry, polarography elemental analysis and FTIR spectroscopy. After Synthesis of metal complex, it was evaluated it for antibacterial and antifungal activities against various pathogenic microorganisms such as; Streptococcus aureus, Proteus. M., klebsiella pneumonia and Asperginus niger, Nigrosporan S.P. B16-F10 melanoma cell and C-57BL/6 mice has been used for anticancer screening of metal complex for in vitro and in vivo study. The result of pharmacological studies with M: L revealed that the complex is more potent as compared to the pure drug as regards to its anticancer activity

Electrochemical Analysis of Natural Chemopreventive Agent (Curcumin) in Extracted Sample and Pharmaceutical Formulation (Short Communication)

Curcumin has anti-oxidative and anticarcinogenic activities. This study shows the electrochemical behaviour of curcumin using polarography, i.e., DC polarography and differential pulse polarography (DPP) methods. In ammonium tartrate as supporting electrolyte, the differential pulse polarogram of curcumin shows two conjugated peaks with peak potential (Ep) -1125 mV and -1275 mV vs SCE. However, the direct current polarogram shows only one polarographic wave with E1/2 which was -1275 mV. The developed electrochemical methods have been standardised for the determination of curcumin in extracted sample of natural origin and its pharmaceutical formulation. The electrochemical analysis has been supplemented by ultraviolet and infrared spectral analyses of the samples.Defence Science Journal, 2010, 60(3), pp.255-258, DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.14429/dsj.60.35
