Study of conformational changes and protein aggregation of bovine serum albumin in presence of Sb(III) and Sb(V).

Antimony is a metalloid that affects biological functions in humans due to a mechanism still not understood. There is no doubt that the toxicity and physicochemical properties of Sb are strongly related with its chemical state. In this paper, the interaction between Sb(III) and Sb(V) with bovine ser...
