Interaction of Nd:YAG Laser Radiation with Bovine Serum Albumin Solution

In this paper, the effect of Nd:YAG laser radiation on the properties of the BSA protein is investigated. A solution with a protein concentration of 5 mg/ml was irradiated for 30 minutes. After a 5-minute and 30-minute exposure, absorption spectra were taken, the particle size in the solution was determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS), the refractive index was determined, and fluorescent maps were taken. Raman spectroscopy of proteins was also performed. The results showed that after irradiation, the absorption of the protein solution decreases in the spectral range corresponding to amino acid residues. In DLS experiments, it was shown that the peak corresponding to protein molecules decreases, and the peaks corresponding to large aggregates (>100 nm) grow. Raman spectroscopy has shown that there is a decrease in intensity at a wavelength of 1570 cm-1. There were no significant changes in the refractive indices and the shape of the fluorescent maps. The data suggest that partial denaturation of proteins took place.
