The decrease in the degree of molecular association of the Rose Bengal nanomarker in solutions with the addition of human serum albumin (HSA) has been revealed. It has been observed that in solutions with the addition of HSA the fluorescence quenching and the shifting of the fluorescence spectrum peaks of Rose Bengal to the red take place. It has been shown that the dependence of the effective binding constant of binding Rose Bengal to HSA steadily decreases with an increase in the pH value. It has been established that the values of the molecular association degree of Rose Bengal and the values of the effective constant of its binding to HSA depend on the magnitude of the electronegativity of the atoms in its structural formula, as well as on the pK values of its ionizable groups.
