Abstract: An otherwise thermodynamically unfavourable oxidation of iron(II) by copper(II) facilitated by complexation of the oxidant with neocuproine was studied in micelle-based nano-containers of varying architecture. Pseudophase and Berezin's kinetic models were respectively used to understand… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics12050466
Abstract: Liposomes containing copper and the copper ionophore neocuproine were prepared and characterized for in vitro and in vivo anticancer activity. Thermosensitive PEGylated liposomes were prepared with different molar ratios of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and hydrogenated soybean… read more here.
