Zusammenfassung: | The adsorption process of Acacia gum (A. senegal), a complex heteropolysaccharide, was followed by using a spectroscopic method to unravel the relative contribution of the protein moieties and the carbohydrate blocks on the adsorption process. In situ ATR-FTIR was used to investigate the kinetics and conformational changes associated with the adsorption of A. senegal gum on gold nanoparticle films (Au-NPs) at different pHs. The results of this thorough study highlighted the adsorption of A. senegal gum through its protein moieties, in particular, AGPs of low molecular weight and high protein content, close to the Au-NPs surface. Isotherm experiments, by gradually increasing the concentration, showed that the gum adsorption was heterogeneous and followed the Freundlich model for the amide part, while the polysaccharide part followed the Langmuir model. In addition, the hydration and structural organization of the gum layer depended on the gum concentration. A. senegal gum adsorbed irreversibly on Au-NPs whatever the pHs, but the adsorbed layer presented a different behavior depending on pH. A more aggregated and less hydrated structure was observed at acidic pH, while a very hydrated and continuous layer was detected at higher pH. The secondary structure analysis through amide III band revealed a change in the gum secondary structure at high pH with the increase in β-turn while random coil decreased |
