The low solubility and high volatility of perillyl alcohol (POH) compromise its bioavailability and potential use as chemotherapeutic drug. In this work, we have evaluated the anticancer activity of POH complexed with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) using three complexation approaches. Molecular docking suggests the hydrogen-bond between POH and β-cyclodextrin in molar proportion was 1:1. Thermal analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed that the POH was enclosed in the β-CD ca ...[more]
