Abstract
This paper presents the preparation of magnetic 2,3 dicarboxycellulose containing antitumor agent as a drug carrier. The physico-chemical ch aracterization by differential calorimetry of the microspheres was mad e and drug release from microspheres was studied in vitro. The constan t release rate noted after 3 hours demonstrates the delayed release ch aracter of drug incorporated in microspheres.
