Current cancer treatment involves the radiation therapy and chemotherapy both of which exerts side effects in the cancer individual that lead to death of the majority of patients. Extensive research work is being carried out in order to reduce the side effects of anticancer drugs. These side effects are mainly due to the non-specificity of drugs to the target tissues. Therefore there is a need to find out the drug delivery system which can efficiently kill the cancer cells without harming normal healthy cells.
