In this paper, the interaction between florasulam (FU, 2',6',8-trifluoro-5-methoxy [Kragh-Hansen U, Molecular aspects of ligand binding to serum albumin. Pharmacol Rev 33(1):17-53 1981; Carter DC and Ho JX, Structure of serum albumin. Adv Protein Chem 45:153-203 1994; He XM, and Carter DC, Atomic structure and chemistry of human serum albumin. Nature 358(6383):209-215 1992] triazolo [1,5-c]pyrimidine-2-sulfonanilide) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated by fluorescence, ultraviolet absorption (UV) and Far-UV circular dichroism (CD) spectrometries. A strong fluorescence quenching was observed and the quenching mechanism was considered as static quenching. The binding constant of FU with BSA at 299 and 309 K were obtained as 1.5 x 10(4) and 7.1 x 10(3) l mol(-1), respectively. There was one binding site between FU and BSA. The thermodynamic parameters enthalpy change (DeltaH) and entropy change (DeltaS) were calculated as -57.89 kJ mol(-1) and -113.6 J mol(-1) K(-1), respectively, which indicated that the acting force between FU and BSA was mainly hydrogen bond and Van der Waals force. According to the Förster non-radiation energy transfer theory, the average binding distance between donor (BSA) and acceptor (FU) was obtained (r = 1.59 nm). The investigations of the UV/Vis and CD spectra of the system showed that the conformation of BSA was changed in presence of FU.
In Tris-HCl buffer (pH ¼ 7.43), Tb 3þ can react with oxolinic acid (OA) and form a 1:2 complex, which emits the intrinsic fluorescence of Tb 3þ . Based on this, a new fluorimetric method of determination of OA is developed. Under the optimum conditions, the enhanced fluorescence intensity of the system is proportional to the concentration of OA in the range of 1.5 Â 10 27 2.5 Â 10 25 mol/L, and the detection limit is 5.5 Â 10 29 mol/L. Recovery test was also satisfactory. The experiments indicated that the luminescence mechanism was attributed to the M Ã -M luminescence.
Nucleic acids can quench resonance light scattering (RLS) intensity of the Y(III)-1,6-bi(1'-phenyl-3'-methyl-5'-pyrazolone-4'-)hexane-dione(BPMPHD) complex in the pH range 5.0-5.8. Under optimal conditions, there are linear relationships between the quenching of RLS and the concentration of nucleic acids in the range 6.3 x 10(-8)-2.1 x 10(-5) g/mL for fish sperm DNA (fsDNA), 1.2 x 10(-8)-5.0 x 10(-5) g/mL for calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) and 6.0 x 10(-8)-2.0 x 10(-5) g/mL for yeast RNA (yRNA). The detection limits (3 s) of fsDNA, ctDNA and yRNA are 0.7 ng/mL, 3.8 ng/mL and 4.2 ng/mL, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
