Sažetak

Eugenol, cinnamic acid and cinnamaldehyde are the main active components of essential oils of cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum). This article studies their interaction with human serum albumin (HSA). Binding site number was calculated. Thermodynamic parameters (Ka, ΔrH°, ΔrG° and ΔrS°) were also determined. The binding of glucose to HSA in the presence and absence of cinnamaldehyde, cinnamic acid and eugenol was studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. Cinnamaldehyde possesses the higher binding constant (Ka) values followed by cinnamic acid. The thermodynamic parameters indicated hydrophobic interactions for cinnamaldehyde, van der Waals interaction and hydrogen bonding for cinnamic acid. The values of binding constant Ka and binding site number (n), of glucose to HSA determined by Scatchard method, increased only in the presence of cinnamaldehyde and/or cinnamic acid. Cinnamaldehyde and/or cinnamic acid modify the structure of HSA therefore increasing the binding of glucose to the protein.
