Luminescent spectral properties of rhodamine derivatives while binding to serum albumin

Abstract

We have studied the effect of blood serum albumin on the absorption and fluorescence spectra of rhodamine C (RC), rhodamine 6G (R6G), and rhodamine 3B (R3B). Interaction of the dye with protein is assessed using the binding parameters: binding constants and concentrations of binding sites. We have studied the effect of temperature on the binding parameters. We have observed that heating a mixture of the dye solution with protein for 30 min leads to an increase in the binding constant for rhodamine 3B with protein by a factor of 2, while the concentration of binding sites increases by a factor of 2.3. This is explained by features of the globular protein structure and a change in its conformation when heated. We have shown that rhodamine 3B at a concentration of 10−5 M is the most effective among the studied rhodamine dyes for application as a fluorescent probe when studying conformational changes in blood serum protein.
