چکیده
The technique of light-scattering has been extensively employed in recent years in physicochemical investigations of proteins in solution.', 2 It is useful not only for the determination of molecular weights of macromolecules but also for the measurement of their thermodynamic interaction. The excess turbidity r, arising from composition fluctuations, in a solution of two components1 is related to the chemical potential 12 and molecular weight M2 of the solute in the following manner:

Studies of Interaction between Propranolol and Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of DMMP by Molecular Spectroscopy and Molecular Dynamics Simulation
The interaction between propranolol (PROP) and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied in the presence of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). DMMP is usually considered as a simulant for chemical warfare agents (CWAs). For this purpose fluorescence quenching, resonance light scattering (RLS), synchronous, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation were emplo...
متن کاملLight Scattering Investigation of Charge Fluctuations in Isoionic Serum Albumin
Light scattering investigations have been carried out on Xrmour bovine plasma albumin (BSA), bovine serum mercaptalbumin (BMA) and human serum mercaptalbumin (HMA) in their isoelectric region. All three proteins were deionized by passing over an ion-exchange column. In the case of salt free aqueous solutions it was found that the function H(C,/ A+) is close to linear in the square root of prote...

In the present research, the D-(+)-Glucose–confined water nanodroplets with mean size in the range of 6-11 nm were synthesized at D-(+)-Glucose different concentrations by AOT reverse micelles (RMs) method as a function of mass fraction of droplet (MFD) at the constant water-to-surfactant molar ratio ( W=40). The dynamic light scattering of the nano-sized water droplets containing the D-(+)-Glu...
