Abstract

AbstractIn pH 4.5–4.8 Britton‐Robinson buffer solution, rifamycin SV (i.e. rifamycin sodium) can react with serum albumin such as human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) to form macromolecular complexes by electrostatic attraction and hydrophobic force. As a result, the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) of the drug was enhanced remarkably and the RRS peaks were at 374 and 552 nm. The enhancement of RRS (ΔI) is directly proportional to the concentration of HSA or BSA. The linear ranges and the detection limits are 0.03–6.0 µg/mL and 9.0 ng/mL for HSA, and 0.01–8.0 µg/mL and 2.0 ng/mL for BSA, respectively. In this work, a sensitive, selective, simple and fast method for the determination of trace amounts of serum albumin by RRS technique has been developed, which was applied to the determination of serum albumin in the synthesized samples and human urine samples with satisfactory results.
