Rahul Kanaoujiya, Shekhar Srivastava
Abstract
Ruthenium is recognized as a highly attractive alternative to platinum since the toxicity of many ruthenium compounds is lower and some complexes are quite selective for antifungal drugs. Ruthenium has various chemical properties these chemical properties are very useful for antifungal drug design. Ruthenium compounds have several types of advantages as antifungal drugs because of lower toxicity. . Ruthenium has unique properties making it of particularly use as fungal in drug design specially in antifungal drugs. Several types of ruthenium complexes and their antifungal activity standards are described here.
