Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs ∼7.5 nm) were synthesized by chemical reduction method to study its interaction with Human Serum Albumin (HSA), the fluorescent protein, at room temperature. To investigate the interaction between ZnO NPs and HSA, the fluorescence quenching is measured for different concentrations of ZnO NPs. The quenching of fluorescence of fluorophore in HSA occurs by formation of HSA-ZnO complex in the solution as confirmed by Resonance light scattering spectra (RLS).

Abstract
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs ∼7.5 nm) were synthesized by chemical reduction method to study its interaction with Human Serum Albumin (HSA), the fluorescent protein, at room temperature. To investigate the interaction between ZnO NPs and HSA, the fluorescence quenching is measured for different concentrations of ZnO NPs. The quenching of fluorescence of fluorophore in HSA occurs by formation of HSA-ZnO complex in the solution as confirmed by Resonance light scattering spectra (RLS).File in questo prodotto:
