Natural Polymer Derivative-based pH responsive Nanoformulations Entrapped Diketo-tautomers of 5-fluorouracil for Enhanced Cancer Therapy by Anbazhagan Thirumalai, Koyeli Girigoswami, Karthick Harini, Venkatakrishnan Kiran, Pazhani Durgadevi, Agnishwar Girigoswami

“…Key results: Steady-state absorption and emission confirmed the presence of advantageous diketone tautomers of 5-FU, indicating radiative transitions from the second singlet excited state to the ground state (S2S0) and the drug's encapsulation within the polymeric nanostructure. Dynamic light scattering revealed that OSA nanoparticles, initially 177.8 nm, grew to 226.6 nm after encapsulating 5-FU, retaining high zeta potential for stability. …”
