Esterase activity and interaction of human hemoglobin with diclofenac sodium: A spectroscopic and molecular docking study.

To get an idea about the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, it is important to study the drug-protein interaction. Therefore, herein, we studied the interaction of diclofenac sodium (DIC) with human hemoglobin. The binding study of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug, DIC with human hemoglobin (HHB) was done by utilizing fluorescence, UV-visible, time-resolved fluorescence and far-UV circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD).
