Objective: Development of dosage form comprising of Capecitabine loaded carbon nanotubes for its targeted delivery to the colon.
Method: Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were functionalized by -COOH and Chitosan along with Folic acid. Capecitabine was loaded in these SWCNT's, and the system was analyzed by FTIR, SEM and Raman spectroscopy.
Our study aimed at development of Silver, Iron and Gold nanoparticles of Lycopene isolated from tomato by using green synthesis technique and to evaluate its anticancer potential against colorectal and cervical cancer. Lycopene was extracted by benzene extraction method and the silver, iron and gold nanoparticles were developed by green synthesis method. 1% aqueous extract of isolated Lycopene was mixed with 1% solutions of AgNO, FeCl and HAuCl solutions and incubated at ambient temperature for 3-4 h separately and observed for the color change which is an indicative of formation of the nanoparticles.

Results: One percent solution of isolated proanthocynidin in water was vigorously mixed with 1% silver nitrate and 1% ferric chloride solution and kept for 4 h, to yield PACAgNP and PACFeNP. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by UV, FTIR, XRD, and SEM analysis and evaluated for antimicrobial potential against selected microbes.
