We synthesized and reduced an iron based MOF (rMOF) to enable Fenton reactions in cancer cells. The carbon dots derived from folic acid were crosslinked with the rMOF using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide <strong>(</strong>EDC-NHS) crosslinking chemistry to provide bio-sensing capabilities and subsequent incorporation of the anticancer drug 5 fluorouracil (5 FU) into this system for targeted anticancer activity. The rMOF-CD linkage is disrupted in acidic environments because of amine group protonation, which results in disintegration of the MOF structure and release of Fe<sup>2+</sup> ions. These ions are capable of destroying cancer cells by engaging in Fenton reactions with the presence of H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> in the cells. Simultaneously, the release of CDs initiates fluorescence, which has been previously suppressed by the molecular structure. 5 FU exhibits substantial anticancer activity, as evidenced by its favourable release profile under acidic conditions (60.42 %).

Ellagic acid is a polyphenolic compound with vast effects like anti-cancer, anti-viral, and anti-oxidant. The ellagic acid nanoparticles was prepared by desolvation method. Formulating ellagic acid NPs using BSA enhances the stability and solubility of ellagic acid. Quality by design (QbD) based approach was adopted to improve the final quality and effectiveness of the formulation. The Critical quality attribute (CQAs) was defined and risk assessment was performed with the help of the Ishikawa fishbone diagram. Solubility analysis was done for the drug with methanol, ethanol, water, and acetone. Preliminary studies were performed to study the effect of type of desolvating agent, the concentration of polymer the pH of the polymer solution, amount of desolvating agent on the particle size and entrapment efficiency of the nanoparticles. A greater quantity of desolvating agent results in a narrower particle size because of thorough desolvation, and the increased encapsulation efficiency is linked to reduced protein-protein interactions. Desolvation process can cause the protein to gradually change structure, form clumps, and eventually form nanoparticles, so might be its shows increase in entrapment efficiency. A desolvating agent volume of 4 ml resulted in a particle size of 1724 ± 1.27 nm. When the amount of desolvating agent was increased to 6 ml and 8 ml, the particle size decreased to 160 ± 0.66 nm and 218 ± 0.47 nm, respectively.
