Popis: | The interaction between human serum transferrin (hTf) and three promising organometallic Ru (II)- (η5-C5H5) derived complexes, that have already shown strong in vitro cytotoxicity towards human cancer cell lines, has been investigated using fluorescence spectroscopic techniques. The results suggested that the formation of Ru-hTf systems involves a dynamic collision. The binding process occurs spontaneously (ΔG |
