The optical characteristics of folic acid (ABP) and metal clusters of copper (Cu) at various locations were investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) computations. Mulliken charge analysis and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface show how charge moves from Cu to ABP through the various groups. The peak in the UV-Vis spectra of ABP-Cu is caused by bonding and anti-bonding orbitals.

Parkinson's disease is estimated to affect around 1% of the world's population over the age of 60, but it can be diagnosed at younger ages. One of the treatment strategies for Parkinson's disease involves the use of drugs that aim to increase dopamine levels or simulate the action of dopamine in the brain.

Drug delivery devices are an effective way to minimize anticancer drug toxicity and nanostructures are used in the targeted drug delivery. In the present work, adsorption and interaction behavior of 4-(dimethylaminodiazenyl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide (DAIC) with nano complexes (graphene, fullerene and fullerene like metal cages) are reported theoretically. From the reactivity studies, the electrophilicity index of DAIC-nanoclusters are increasing and this gives the bioactivity of the nanocluster systems.
