Abstract
⺠Puerarin can quench the fluorescence of human serum albumin (HSA). ⺠The HSA fluorescence is quenched by puerarin through a static quenching mechanism. ⺠The binding of puerarin to HSA is driven mainly by hydrophobic interaction. ⺠The parallel factor analysis confirms that puerarin is located in site I of HSA. ⺠The binding of puerarin to HSA induces changes in the secondary structure of HSA.
