The interaction of bovine serum albumin and rat alpha1-fetoprotein with aflatoxin B1 has been followed by the fluorescence quenching of the protein in presence of the ligand. The binding parameters (n, number of sites and Kd, dissociation constant) have been determined for the bovine serum albumin-alflatoxin B1 system: n = 3.5 and Kd = 3.1 +/- 0.5 . 10(-5) M and for the alpha-fetoprotein-aflatoxin system: n = 4 and Kd = 3.7 +/-0.5 . 10(-5) M. The competition of anilino-naphthalene-sulfonate and aflatoxin B1 for the same hydrophobic sites on bovine serum albumin has been demonstrated. The fluorescence quenching of various proteins (lysozymes, egg-albumin, gamma-globulin) by aflatoxin B1 have shown that there is not a strict specificity of aflatoxin towards proteins.
