Abstract

The binding of anionic dye, p-(2-amino-6-sulfonyl-8-naphthylazo)benzene sulfonic acid disodium salt (ASANA) to bovine serum albumin (BSA) at pH 7.5 has been studied by spectrophotometric techniques. The values of the dissociation constants were obtained with the use of the Benesi-Hildebrand equation for ASANA. Competitive binding of polyanions, sodium poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSSNa), potassium poly(vinyl sulfonate) (PVSK), poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) and anionic dye to BSA was evaluated through the variations in the different spectra of BSA-dye-polymer systems.
