Triclocarban (TCC), as a broad spectrum antibacterial agent widely used in personal care products, has recently been recognized as environmental pollutant with the potential of adversely affecting wildlife and human health. However, the behavior of TCC in blood circulatory system and the potential toxicity of TCC at the molecular level have been poorly investigated. In this study, the effect of TCC on human serum albumin (HSA) and the binding mechanism of TCC to HSA were examined using spectroscopic techniques and molecular modeling methods. The fluorescence results suggested that the fluorescence of HSA was quenched by TCC through a static quenching mechanism and nonradiation energy transfer, and TCC was bound to HSA with moderately strong binding affinity via hydrophobic interaction based on the analysis of the thermodynamic parameters. The site marker competitive experiments revealed that TCC bound into subdomain IIA (site I) of HSA. In addition, the results obtained from the circular dichroism, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid fluorescence, synchronous fluorescence, three-dimensional fluorescence spectra and dynamic light scattering suggested the change in the microenvironment and conformation of HSA during the binding reaction. Finally, the best binding mode of TCC and specific interaction of TCC with amino acid residues were determined using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. In a word, the present studies can provide a way to help us well understand the transport, distribution and toxicity effect of TCC when it diffused in the human body.
