Eukaryotic Cell Toxicity and HSA Binding of [Ru(Me4phen)(bb7)]2+ and the Effect of Encapsulation in Cucurbit[10]uril

The toxicity (IC50) of a series of mononuclear ruthenium complexes containing bis[4(4′-methyl-2,2′-bipyridyl)]-1,n-alkane (bbn) as a tetradentate ligand against three eukaryotic cell lines—BHK (baby hamster kidney), Caco-2 (heterogeneous human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma) and Hep-G2 (liver...
