Understanding the interaction of proteins with nanoparticles has become an important area of research in biomedical and pharmaceutical fields. Morin is a flavonol which shows several properties including antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory activities. However, the major limitation is its poor aqueous solubility. Therefore, morin-loaded polylacticco-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanoparticles (MPNPs) were prepared to improve the solubility of morin. The resulting MPNPs were characterized by spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. The nanoparticles were spherical with an average size of 237 +/- 17 nm. UV visible, fluorescence, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy were employed to study the interaction of the MPNPs with human serum albumin (HSA). Our study revealed that a static fluorescence quenching mechanism was involved in the interaction between HSA and MPNPs. Hydrophobic interactions also play an important role in stabilizing the HSA-MPNP complex. CD results suggest that there is an alteration of the secondary structure of HSA in the presence of MPNPs. MPNPs exhibit antioxidant properties which are supported by the DPPH assay. We have further checked the effect of HSA on the antioxidant property of morin and MPNPs. HSA binding with MPNPs was also found to influence the in vitro release property of morin from MPNPs wherein a delayed release response is observed.
