Host-guest interaction of ZnBDC-MOF + doxorubicin: A theoretical and experimental study
Journal of Molecular Structure(2017)
Abstract
The incorporation of drugs in biodegradable polymeric particles is one of many processes that controllably and significantly increase their release and action. In this paper, we describe the synthesis and physicochemical characterization of ZnBDC-MOF + doxorubicin (DOXO@ZnBDC) and the system's effectiveness in the sustained release of the drug doxorubicin. An experimental and theoretical study is presented of the interaction between the [Zn(BDC)(H2O)2]n MOF and the drug doxorubicin (DOXO). The synthesis was characterized by elemental analysis and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). The experimental incorporation was accomplished and analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), XRPD and UV–Vis (ultraviolet–visible) spectrophotometry. Based on an analysis of the doxorubicin release profile, our results suggest that the drug delivery system showed slower release than other systems under development. Studies of cytotoxicity by the MTT method showed good results for the system developed with antineoplastic doxorubicin, and together with the other results of this study, suggest the successful development of a MOF-based drug delivery system.
