AbstractIn this work, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is used to study the adsorption of the anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), on the wall or surface of pristine and functionalized carbon nanotubes (FCNTs) in an aqueous solution. Initially, the CNTs were functionalized by tryptophan (Trp) and folic acid (FA), and then the DOX molecules were added to the system. The simulation results showed that the drug molecules can intensely interact with the FCNTs at physiological pH. Furthermore, it was found that as a result of functionalization, the solubility of FCNTs in an aqueous solution increases significantly. The effect of pH variation on drug release from both pristine and FCNTs was also investigated. The obtained results indicated that in acidic environments due to protonation of functional groups (Trp) and as a result of repulsive interaction between the DOX molecule and functional groups, the release of DOX molecules from FCNT’s surface is facilitated. The drug release is also strongly dependent on the pH and protonated state of DOX and FCNT.
