In this paper, the properties of chitosan nanoparticles and bovine serum albumin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles prepared with sodium tripolyphosphate at different pH values were discussed. Interactions in chitosan nanoparticles and bovine serum albumin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The results indicated that there were more complicated interactions in chitosan nanoparticles prepared at different pH values. When the pH values were lower or higher than isoelectric point value of target protein (bovine serum albumin), the big different interactions occurred in chitosan nanoparticles. These differences also would result in different releasing properties.

Interaction between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and tetraantraquinoporphyrazines (TAP) and tetrasulphophthalocyanine (Pc) aluminum hydroxide was studied by means of electron absorption spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that the complex formation of BSA with the TAPs results in increase of thermal stability of the protein while Pc does not have remarkable influence on the protein thermal denaturation.

The thermal denaturation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) is a kinetically and thermodynamically controlled process. The effects of zinc binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA), followed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), were investigated in this work, with the purpose of obtaining a better understanding of the albumin/zinc interaction. From the DSC curves, the thermodynamic parameters of protein denaturation were obtained, i.e., the temperature of thermal transition maximum (T m), calorimetric enthalpy (?Hcal), van't Hoff enthalpy (?HvH), the number of binding sites (I, II), the binding constants for each binding site (K bI, K bII) and the average number of ligands bound per mole of native protein X N. The thermodynamic data of protein unfolding showed that zinc binding to bovine serum albumin increases the stability of the protein (higher values of ?Hcal) and the different ratio ?Hcal/?HvH indicates the perturbation of the protein during thermal denaturation.

The binding interactions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with tetraphenylborate ions ([B(Ph)4]−) have been investigated by a set of experimental methods (isothermal titration calorimetry, steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and circular dichroism spectroscopy) and molecular dynamics-based computational approaches. Two sets of structurally distinctive binding sites in BSA were found under the experimental conditions (10 mM cacodylate buffer, pH 7, 298.15 K). The obtained results, supported by the competitive interactions experiments of SDS with [B(Ph)4]− for BSA, enabled us to find the potential binding sites in BSA. The first site is located in the subdomain I A of the protein and binds two [B(Ph)4]− ions (logK(ITC)1 = 7.09 ± 0.10; ΔG(ITC)1 = −9.67 ± 0.14 kcal mol−1; ΔH(ITC)1 = −3.14 ± 0.12 kcal mol−1; TΔS(ITC)1 = −6.53 kcal mol−1), whereas the second site is localized in the subdomain III A and binds five ions (logK(ITC)2 = 5.39 ± 0.06; ΔG(ITC)2 = −7.35 ± 0.09 kcal mol−1; ΔH(ITC)2 = 4.00 ± 0.14 kcal mol−1; TΔS(ITC)2 = 11.3 kcal mol−1). The formation of the {[B(Ph)4]−}–BSA complex results in an increase in the thermal stability of the alfa-helical content, correlating with the saturation of the particular BSA binding sites, thus hindering its thermal unfolding.

Silimarin merupakan senyawa flavonolignan yang berasal dari tumbuhan Silybum marianum (Asteraceae). Silimarin memiliki efek farmakologi sebagai antikanker dan hepatoprotektor, tetapi senyawa ini memiliki kelarutan yang rendah dalam air. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengembangkan formulasi silimarin dalam sistem pembawa nano dengan teknik desolvasi. Pembawa yang digunakan adalah serum albumin (bovine serum albumin/BSA). Kombinasi silimarin dalam BSA diharapkan dapat meningkatkan efikasi silimarin sebagai anti kanker karena permeabilitas BSA yang lebih baik pada sel kanker. Evaluasi standar terhadap nanopartikel silimarin-BSA meliputi ukuran dan distribusi ukuran partikel, zeta potensial, morfologi nanopartikel, kristalinitas, sifat termal, spektroskopi inframerah, efisiensi penjeratan serta profil pelepasan silimarin dari BSA nanopartikel pada 2 media berbeda (HCl 0,1 N & PBS pH 7,4). Nanopartikel BSA- silimarin memiliki ukuran partikel 174,23 13,94 nm; distribusi ukuran partikel 0,185 0,052; efisiensi penjeratan 90,54 0,098 %; loading capacity 30,18 0,036 % dan zeta potensial -1,62 mV. Hasil analisis menggunakan DSC (differential scanning calorimetry), XRD (X-ray diffraction) dan spektroskopi inframerah menunjukan bahwa nanopartikel silimarin berhasil terenkapsulasi di dalam nanopartikel BSA, dan BSA-silimarin memiliki bentuk amorf. Setelah 1 jam uji pelepasan, terdapat sebanyak 21,89% silimarin terlepas dalam HCl 0,1 N dan 54,84% silimarin terlepas dalam PBS pH 7,4 sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa silimarin-BSA memiliki kelarutan yang baik dalam air. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan pengujian lebih lanjut untuk mengkaji akt ivitas serta perilaku silimarin-BSA in vivo untuk mengkonfirmasi data in vitro.

We investigated the effects of formaldehyde fixation on the secondary structure of isolated proteins (bovine serum albumin, ribonuclease A, and hemoglobin) using high-sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Whereas thermograms obtained by scanning calorimetry on unfixed purified proteins demonstrated denaturation transitions in the 70-90 degrees C temperature range, the thermograms showed no denaturation transitions in this temperature range when the proteins had been placed in formaldehyde solutions. Thus, fixation destroyed the denaturation transition of bovine serum albumin, ribonuclease A, and hemoglobin. Infrared spectra obtained on the unfixed and fixed proteins were essentially identical. This demonstrates that the "fixed" proteins retain the secondary structure present before fixation. We therefore conclude that the cross-linking of proteins that occurs in the process of formaldehyde fixation "locks in" the secondary structure of these protein molecules.

We recently described an artificial substrate system which could be used to optimize labeling parameters in EM immunocytochemistry (ICC). The system utilizes blocks of glutaraldehyde polymerized bovine serum albumin (BSA) into which an antigen is incorporated by a soaking procedure. The resulting antigen impregnated blocks can then be fixed and embedded as if they are pieces of tissue and the effects of fixation, embedding and other parameters on the ability of incorporated antigen to be immunocyto-chemically labeled can then be assessed. In developing this system further, we discovered that the BSA substrate can also be dried and then sectioned for immunolabeling with or without prior chemical fixation and without exposing the antigen to embedding reagents. The effects of fixation and embedding protocols can thus be evaluated separately.

SummaryThe biological half-life of prostacyclin in Krebs solution, human cell-free plasma or whole blood was measured by bracket assay on ADP-induced platelet aggregation. At 37°C, pH 7.4, plasma and blood reduced the rate of loss of antiaggregatory activity compared with Krebs solution. The protective effect of plasma was greater than that of whole blood. This effect could be partially mimicked by the addition of human or bovine serum albumin to the Krebs solution. The stabilisation afforded by human serum albumin was dependent on the fatty acid content of the albumin, although this was less important for bovine serum albumin.
