Caption

a) Schematic representation of thiol exchange scheme which shows the fluorescence DOX released in presence of Glutathione (GSH) molecule. b) Selectivity of thiol exchange with thiols compared to disulphides. Precipitation was clearly observed for thiols like Cysteamine (CSA), Glutathione (GSH), Mercaptopropionic acid (MPA). However Lipoic acid (LA), a disulphide shows no precipitation which indicate no significant thiol exchange. c) Release of fluorescent DOX in cancer cells confirmed through confocal imaging. d) Canonical score plot for successful discrimination of various bio-thiols.
