Heat Induced Denaturation of Bovine Serum Albumin in Dimethylsulfoxide Containing Solutions in the Presence of Potassium Iodide
نویسندگان
چکیده
Heat induced denaturation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) containing solutions in the presence of potassium iodide has been studied using UV/vis spectroscopy method. It has been shown that the thermal stability of protein depends on competitive interactions taking place in the solution. At low DMSO concentrations (5 vol. %) BSA is more stable than at higher concentrations (10–25 vol. %).

How Do Palladium Complexes Affect on Coil Structure of Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of Carbon Nanotube? A Molecular Dynamics Study
To investigate the interaction and adsorption of drug and carbon nanotube on human serum albumin, three anti-cancer drugs ([Pd(phen)(R-gly)]NO3, R = methyl, propyl and amyl) with different hydrophobic tails and anticancer activities were selected. These drugs have better anti-tumor activity and less side effects than that known cis-platinum drug. Human serum albumin is also ...

Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy using a special waveguide based on a silver halide fiber was used for probing the heat-induced secondary structure and conformation changes of bovine serum albumin (BSA). From the secondary derivative and the curve fitting of the obtained ATR-FTIR spectra, the changes of the BSA secondary structure with temperature w...

Aflatoxins are a group of fungal toxic metabolites, which are contaminated certain food commodities. ELISA is one of the sensitive methods for detection of aflatoxins. Preparation and stabilizing of a proper conjugated tracer for detection of aflatoxins is probably the main step for designing an ELISA method. In current study, different stabilizers were applied to stabilize a newly prepared con...

A calorimetric study of thermal denaturation of bovine serum albumin in aqueous solutions has shown essential differences in stability of fatty acid containing and defatted albumin. The first one shows a single endotherm peak in DSC curve near 69°C with enthalpy change about 1000 kJ mol. Defated albumin melts in two different temperature ranges: near 56 and 69°C with enthalpy changes about 300 ...
