Spectroscopic studies on the interaction of green synthesized-gold nanoparticles with human serum albumin

The interaction of gold nanoparticles, synthesized using Curcuma mangga extract (CM-AuNPs) with human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated with the help of fluorescence, UV absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. In view of the positive correlation of Stern-Volmer constant with temperat...
