Abstract

In this work, using quantum mechanics, the interaction of drug 2-methoxyestradiol with γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles have been studied. Fe2O3 nanoparticles were modeled using Fe6(OH)18(H2O)6 ring clusters. 2-methoxyestradiol molecule can coordinate to the γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles via its own OH groups. All of the calculations have been performed using a hybrid density functional method (B3LYP) in solution phase. Two possible modes of noncovalent interaction of 2-methoxyestradiol onto γ-Fe2O3nanoparticles were investigated. Quantum molecular descriptors in the drugnanoparticle systems were studied. It was found that binding of 2-methoxyestradiol with γ-Fe2O3nanoparticles is thermodynamically favorable. Therefore, γ-Fe2O3nanoparticlescanact as a suitable system for drug 2- methoxyestradiol delivery within biological systems.

 

Key words:2-methoxyestradiol, γ-Fe2O3nanoparticles, DFT, Drug delivery, Quantum molecular descriptors

Entomology and Applied Science Letters is an international double-blind peer reviewed publication which publishes scientific research & review articles related to insects that contain information of interest to a wider audience, e.g. papers bearing on the theoretical, genetic, agricultural, medical and biodiversity issues. Emphasis is also placed on the selection of comprehensive, revisionary or integrated systematics studies of broader biological or zoogeographical relevance. In addition to full-length research articles and reviews, the journal publishes interpretive articles in a Forum section, Short Communications, and Letters to the Editor. The journal publishes reports on all phases of medical entomology and medical acarology, including the systematics and biology of insects, acarines, and other arthropods of public health and veterinary significance.

Associations
Entomology and Applied Science Letters supports the submission of entomological papers that contain information of interest to a wider reader groups e. g. papers bearing on taxonomy, phylogeny, biodiversity, ecology, systematic, agriculture, morphology. The selection of comprehensive, revisionary or integrated systematics studies of broader biological or zoogeographical relevance is also important. Distinguished entomologists drawn from different parts of the world serve as honorary members of the Editorial Board. The journal encompasses all the varied aspects of entomological research.
