β-cyclodextrin/alginate nanoparticles encapsulated 5-fluorouracil as an effective and safe anticancer drug delivery system

Although 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is one of the most frequently used cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs in the treatment of cancer, it possesses a short biological half-life and toxic side effects against normal healthy cells. In this work, β-cyclodextrin/alginate (β-CD/Alg) nanoparticles loaded with 5-fluor...
