Encapsulation of a 5FU-curcumin hybrid on bacterial nanocellulose for colorectal cancer treatment.

The traditional treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) involves a combination of chemotherapy and synthetic and natural drugs. In this study, a hybrid compound of 5-fluorouracil-curcumin encapsulated in bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) was evaluated for CRC treatment. Bacterial nanocellulose was produced using K.
