ABSTRACT

 

The interactions of different compounds, with bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA), or calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) have been studied by spectroscopic techniques such as fluorescence and UV–Visible absorption spectroscopy at physiological condition (pH 7.40). The quenching constants and binding parameters (binding constants and number of binding sites) were determined by fluorescence quenching method. The experiments were done at different temperatures. The thermodynamic parameters were calculated (ΔG0, ΔH0 and ΔS0), then the interaction forces of the reaction were determined from sign and magnitude of the thermodynamic parameters. The displacement experiments with site markers were done and the binding sites of the ligands were obtained. Moreover, the conformational changes of protein were revealed by synchronous fluorescence and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Finally, the distance, r, between donor (serum albumin) and acceptor (ligands) were obtained according to Förster theory of non-radiation energy transfer.

A simple analytical method based on the second-order calibration of the pH gradient spectrophotometric data was developed for assay of carminic acid (CA) in human plasma and orange. The parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) was coupled with standard addition to encounter the significant effects of plasma and juices matrices on the acid-base behavior and UV-Vis absorbance spectra of CA. The results confirmed the success of the proposed method in the analysis of pH gradient spectrophotometric data for determination of CA.

A new method for the determination of vitamin B12 based on the fluorescence quenching of BSA-stabilized gold nanoclusters (BSA-AuNCs) was developed. The fluorescence emission was measured at λexem 370/617 nm in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4), and the experimental variables and possible interferences were studied. Thus, a simple, sensitive, and selective method for rapid determination of vitamin B12 was described. The proposed method was successfully applied to commercial injection ampoules.
