The methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium （MTT） colorimetric method was employed to assay the killing activity of 5-FU INPs on 5 tumor cell lines at different phases.RESULTS The 5-FU INPs had a favorable slow-release function, with a tl/2 release time of 10.4 days. The 5-FU INPs had a rather strong lethal effect on 5 tumor cell lines resulting in a positive correlativity between the killing activity and the action time and amount of the drug released.CON＇CLUSION The drug disposition is uniform from the 5-FU INPs, and there is no impact on efficacy of the 5-FU during preparation and degradation of the 5-FU INPs. The 5-FU INPs have a favorable function for drug release, and can maintain an effective killing activity over a long period of time.展开更多
