The structure of the newly prepared magnetite nanoparticle was clarified by using attenuated total reflectance (ATR) infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-vis and elemental analysis. Analytic results indicated that modification of the surface of the magnetite nanoparticles with azacrown ether derivative was successfully carried out. The protein binding studies exhibited that the modified magnetite nanoparticles could be efficiently used for the binding of the human serum albumin (HSA) in aqueous solutions via non-covalent interaction between crown ether cavity and amino group of the protein.en10.1007/s13233-013-1135-1info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesscrown etherhuman serum albumin (HSA)magnetite nanoparticleprotein bindingsilica gelArticle21910291035Q2WOS:000319772100012Q2
