Anticancer metal complexes: synthesis and cytotoxicity evaluation by the MTT assay.
Titanium (IV) and vanadium (V) complexes are highly potent anticancer agents. A challenge in their synthesis refers to their hydrolytic instability; therefore their preparation should be conducted under an inert atmosphere. Evaluation of the anticancer activity of these complexes can be achieved by the MTT assay. The MTT assay is a colorimetric viability assay based on enzymatic reduction of th...
متن کاملComparison of the cytotoxicity of high-level disinfectants by the MTT assay and direct contact assay.
Most critical instruments are not designed for heat sterilization and autoclaving. These items are usually treated with chemical agents such as peracetic acid(PAA), glutaraldehyde (GA) and ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA). MTT assay is often used to evaluate the in vitro cytotoxicity of these chemical agents. In this study, disinfectants were allowed to come in direct contact with cells. Their cytoto...
متن کاملMetal (II) Complexes of Fluconazole: Thermal, XRD and Cytotoxicity Studies
We report thermal, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and cytotoxicity studies of complexes of fluconazole (FCZ) with Cu (II), Fe(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Mn(II). From XRD measurements, FCZ and its metal complexes were identified as polycrystalline. Marked differences in the X-ray patterns of drug and its metal complexes revealed that the complexes are indeed different compounds and not just the m...

متن کامل2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-N-phenylacetamide Derivatives as Anticancer Agents: Synthesis and In-vitro Cytotoxicity Evaluation
Cancer is a major global problem and is the second leading cause of mortality in the developed countries.Resistance to current chemotherapeutics and high incidence of adverse effects are the two principal reasons for developing new anticancer agents. Phenylacetamide derivatives can act as potential anticancer agents. Synthesis and screening of 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-N-phenylacetamide derivatives in...
