ABSTRACT
The effect of non-ionizing millimeter range electromagnetic waves (MM EMW) (30-300 GHz) on the bovine serum albumin (BSA) interaction peculiarities with acridine orange (AO) has been studied in vitro. The frequencies 41.8 and 50.3 GHz were chosen, since the first one is nonresonant frequency for the water, while the second one is resonant for water. The binding constant and number of binding sites were calculated at both irradiation presence and absence. AO was revealed to bind to BSA, while after the protein irradiation the interaction force strengthens. However, it was also shown that there are differences of the interaction parameters while irradiating by 41.8 or 50.3 GHz. AO binds to BSA, irradiated by MM EMW with the frequency 41.8 GHz much more weaker, than to that, irradiated by MM EMW with the frequency 50.3 GHz.
The manuscript is devoted to the study of the effect of millimeter range electromagnetic waves with the frequencies 41.8 and 50.3 GHz on the model biological system, being on molecular level of organization. Nowadays millimeter range electromagnetic waves compose a significant part of electromagnetic pollution in the environment and affect biological material, besides these waves are used in extremely high frequencies-therapy ((30300 GHz), which are millimeter range electromagnetic waves (110 mm)). On the other hand, the problem of their effect mechanism is mainly connected to water, since the resonant frequencies for water molecules are in the interval of millimeter waves. In the present study, as such biological molecule, the bovine serum albumin has been chosen, which interacts with acridine orange. Serum albumins are known to carry and transport various endogenous and exogenous agents, including drugs throughout circulatory system. In turn, acridine orange has been extensively used for biological staining to differentiate DNA from RNA by fluorescence emission for years, Nowadays, it is considered as a promising agent for antitumorous treatment and diagnosis.The data obtained show that the interaction between bovine serum albumin and acridine orange changes, when the solution of albumin is irradiated by the millimeter waves with the frequencies 41.8 and 50.3 GHz. However, the interaction alteration depends on the frequency as well. Thus, the irradiation with the frequency 41.8 GHz makes insignificant changes, while that with the frequency 50.3 GHz induces significant changes of measured parameters. The studies were conducted by absorption, fluorescence and CD spectroscopy methods.
