In this research, the interaction of [CuL(DMF)], [NiL(DMF)] and [VOL(DMF)] (where L = ((E)-4-((2-amino-5-nitrophenylimino)methyl)benzene-1,3-diol)) complexes derived from tridentate Schiff base ligand with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and DNA was investigated via electronic absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectra exhibited an isosbestic point for the com...

A series of selenium derivatives (6-12) of 2-phenylazophenyl have been synthesized using o-lithiation route. The effect of the strength of the intramolecular Se···N interaction on the absorption spectra as well as emission spectra has been studied. The studies suggest that the secondary bonding Se···N interaction give rise to fluorescence, however, the strength of Se···N interaction cannot be d...

Fluorescence spectroscopic properties of honey and cane sugar syrup were investigated in order to explore the use of optical techniques for detection of adulteration of honey with cane sugar syrup. Measurements showed that while the major contributor to the fluorescence of cane sugar syrup is the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, the fluorescence of honey is dominated by flavin...

The herbicide atrazine is widely used across the globe, which is a great concern. To investigate its potential toxicity in the human body, human serum albumin (HSA) was selected as a model protein. The interaction between atrazine and HSA was investigated using steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, three-dimensional (3D) fluorescence...

In the present work, we attempted to develop new metal coordination complexes of the natural flavonoid 5-hydroxyflavone with Sm(III), Eu(III), Gd(III), Tb(III). The resultant hydroxo complexes have been characterized by a variety of spectroscopic techniques, including fluorescence, FT-IR, UV-Vis, EPR and mass spectral studies. The general chemical formula of the complexes is [Ln(C15H₉O₃)₃(OH)₂(...

Naturally occurring dissolved organic matter [DOM) was investigated in a lagoonal system with the aim to study the origin and mixing of the Doh4 components. Water samples were collected in the Sacca di Goro lagoon (PO river delta, Italy) and analysed by means of different techniques, such as fluorescence, absorpt~on and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) measurements. Synchronous fluorescence spect...

conclusions the expression of recombinant calprotectin, as an effective protein, can help in diagnosis or treatment of inflammatory and cancer processes in the future. furthermore, ca2+ induced a partial change in secondary and tertiary structure of calprotectin subunits and this change is probably necessary for protein dimerization. results interaction of s100a8 and s100a9 in the presence of c...

The characteristics of the interaction between reserpine and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by fluorescence, UV-vis absorption and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that fluorescence quenching of BSA by reserpine was through a static quenching procedure. The binding constant K(A) of reserpine with BSA at 293, 301 and 309 K was 1.63, 1.78 a...

The interaction between N,N'-ethylenebis-[2-(o-hydroxyphenolic)glycine] (EHPG) and lanthanum was studied by the difference UV spectra and fluorescence spectra. At pH 7.4, 0.01 M N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethanesulfonic acid (Hepes), with the addition of 1.0 x 10(-3)M lanthanum, two new peaks were observed at 238 nm and 294 nm by absorptivity spectroscopy compared with blank solution EHPG s...
