Spectroscopic analyses on interaction of Naphazoline hydrochloride with bovine serum albumin.

The fluorescence and ultraviolet spectroscopy were explored to study the interaction between Naphazoline hydrochloride (Naphcon) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) at three different temperatures (292, 301, and 310 K) under imitated physiological conditions. The quenching mechanism of BSA by Naphacon was interpreted using the Stern-Volmer mechanism, and a combined quenching (dynamic and static quenching). The binding constants, binding sites and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS) of the interaction system were calculated at different temperatures.
