Concentration-dependent mode of binding of drug oxatomide with DNA: multi-spectroscopic, voltammetric and metadynamics simulation analysis.

The interaction between antihistaminic drug oxatomide () and calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA) has been investigated in a physiological buffer (pH 7.4) using UV-Vis, fluorescence, H NMR and circular dichroism spectral techniques coupled with viscosity measurements, KI quenching, voltammetry and molecular modeling studies. binds with CT-DNA in a concentration-dependent manner.
