The interaction between Avelox and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated at different temperatures by fluorescence spectroscopy. Results showed that Avelox could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA strongly, and the quenching mechanism was a static quenching process with Förester spectroscopy energy transfer. The electrostatic force played an important role on the conjugation reaction between BSA and Avelox. The order of magnitude of binding constants (Ka) was 104, and the number of binding site (n) in the binary system was approximately equal to 1. The binding distance (r) was less than 3 nm and the primary binding site for Avelox was located in subdomain IIA of BSA. Synchronous fluorescence spectra clearly revealed that the microenvironment of amino acid residues and the conformation of BSA were changed during the binding reaction. In addition, the effect of some antibiotics on the binding constant of Avelox with BSA was also studied.

The morphology of nanomaterials may affect their interaction with biomacromolecules such as proteins. Previous work has studied the size-dependent binding of pristine nC60 to bovine/human serum albumin using the fluorometric method and found that the fluorescence inner filter effect might affect this interaction. However, if it is necessary to accurately calculate and obtain binding information, the fluorescence inner filter effect should not be ignored. This work aimed to further investigate the effect of the fluorescence inner filter on the interaction between pristine nC60 with different particle sizes (140–160, 120–140, 90–110, 50–70, and 30–50 nm) and bovine serum albumin for a more accurate comprehension of the binding of pristine nC60 to bovine serum albumin. The nC60 nanoparticles with different size distributions used in the experiments were obtained by the solvent displacement and centrifugation method. UV-Vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to study the binding of nC60 with different size distributions to bovine serum albumin (BSA) before and after eliminating the fluorescence inner filter effect. The results showed that the fluorescence inner filter effect had an influence on the interaction between nC60 and proteins to some extent, and still did not change the rule of the size-dependent binding of nC60 nanoparticles to BSA. Further studies on the binding parameters (binding constants and the number of binding sites) between them were performed, and the effect of the binding on BSA structures and conformation were also speculated.

Anodic Behaviour

The anodic behaviour of carbamazepine (CBZ), an anticonvulsant drug, has been studied on gold electrode in 0.1 mol dm-3 phosphate buffer of pH 7.0 by using cyclic voltammetry. It has been found that the value of the oxidative current of pure CBZ at +0.90 V is a linear function of the concentration in a range from 1.0?10-7 to 1.0?10?4 mol dm?3. The detection of CBZ in the concentration of 1.0?10-8 mol dm-3 is among the lowest that have been reported for this drug using voltammetric techniques. CBZ as a content of tablet Galepsine? has been quantitatively determined. It has also been demonstrated that the modification of gold electrode with bovine serum albumin (BSA) results in a decrease of the oxidative peak current due to the binding of the drug to BSA.
