Spectroscopic determination of Potassium Salts with Egg Yolk

Understanding the fundamental interactions between egg yolk and potassium salts is essential in the area of implantable medical devices. Fluorescence methods offer sensitivity required to study the interaction of egg yolk with the potassium salts. The complex formation was studied with the help of the UV absorption also. Further, it was conformed by X-ray diffraction and Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis. The differences in fluorescence lifetimes may indicate the structural changes induced in egg yolk by potassium salts.
