Abstract
Both lomefloxacin (LOM) and ofloxacin (OFL) have a powerful ability to quench the fluorescence of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The fluorescence quenching action is much stronger when the two drugs coexist. The synergism between LOM and OFL was studied using fluorescence and ultraviolet spectroscopy under imitated physiological conditions. The results show that static quenching and non-radiation energy transfer are the main reasons for the fluorescence quenching. The synergism results in both the reduction of the binding stability between drugs and BSA and an increase of the free drug concentration, which will increase the efficacy of drugs. The thermodynamic parameters at different temperatures were calculated and the binding distances r between the drugs and BSA were obtained based on Försters theory of non-radiation energy transfer. The synchronous fluorescence spectra indicated that the effect of synergism affected the conformation of BSA.
