In this paper, we first report the ultrasonic dispersion temperature- and pH-tuned spectral and electrochemical properties of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and its configurational transition. The BSA-SWCNTs exhibit an irreversible oxidation peak at 0.793 V (vs. SCE) and a couple of tryptophan (Trp)-based surface-confined redox peaks at the formal potential of 0.154 V. The decrease of the dispersion temperature down to 283 K from 313 K at pH 7.2 leads to an increase in the surface activity coefficient (gamma(s)) and exothermic reaction rate constant (k(f)). The loop (L)-shaped BSA-SWCNTs with slight beta-sheet prepared by controlling the dispersion temperature at 298 K (pH 7.2) show the maximum emission and minimum absorbance. The L-form of BSA-SWCNTs is transformed into basic (B)-form and fast migration (F)-form while controlling the dispersion temperature at 283 K and 313 K, respectively. The dispersion temperature and pH have a synergistic influence on the spectral and electrochemical properties of BSA-SWCNTs via the unfolding/refolding processes of beta-sheet driven by ultrasonic/thermal motion and surface adsorption. The present study provides an effective approach for the preparation and evaluation of serum protein-based nanomaterials with spectral and electrochemical properties tuned by dispersion pH or temperature, as well as opens the way for optoelectronic and electrochemical applications.
