Interaction of Novel Ni2+, Cu2+ and VO2+ Complexes of a Tridentate Schiff Base Ligand with DNA, BSA and their Cytotoxic Activity

In this research, the interaction of [CuL(DMF)], [NiL(DMF)] and [VOL(DMF)] (where L = ((E)-4-((2-amino-5-nitrophenylimino)methyl)benzene-1,3-diol)) complexes derived from tridentate Schiff base ligand with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and DNA was investigated via electronic absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectra exhibited an isosbestic point for the complexes through titration with DNA. The experimental...
