## Abstract (β)βEpigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) is the major component of green tea and is known to show strong biological activity, although it can be easily oxidized under physiological conditions. In this study, we indicate that EGCg is stable in human serum and that human serum albumin (HSA) st

The feature of brucine binding to human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated via fluorescence and UV/vis absorption spectroscopy. The results revealed that brucine caused the fluorescence quenching of HSA by the formation of brucine-HSA complex. The hydrophobic interaction plays a major role in stab
The interactions of flavonoids, including quercetin, rutin, hyperin and baicalin, with human serum albumin (HSA) were studied. Fluorescence emission spectra of HSA in the presence of the investigated compounds, recorded at the excitation and emission wavelength of 280 and 290-500 nm, respectively, c
