In this review article we discuss a large number of the studies of interactions between
protein-coated surfaces that has been presented in the literature. We also demonstrate how …

In this review article we discuss the types of non-specific forces that are of importance for the
interactions between proteins and surfaces. Some of these forces are well understood …

Proteins are copolymers of some 22 different amino acids of varying hydrophobicity (Fig. 1).
As a consequence, proteins are more or less amphiphilic and, therefore, usually highly …

Publisher Summary The chapter discusses the proteins at interfaces and aims to present
protein adsorption and its ramifications, such as the effects of adsorption on conformation …

Under most conditions proteins show a strong tendency to adsorb at interfaces. The general
principles underlying the interaction between proteins and solid surfaces in an aqueous …

Physicochemical studies on the mechanisms of protein adsorption onto solid material
surfaces have been extensively performed so far, mainly based on the analysis of factors …

This paper deals with the usefulness of a colloid-chemical approach to study protein
adsorption and bacterial adhesion. Proteins that have a strong internal coherence (eg …

The ability of polymer molecules attached at one end to a surface to prevent or enhance
protein adsorption has been studied experimentally and theoretically. Recent systematic …

Besides significantly broadening the scope of available data on adhesion of proteins on
solid substrates, we demonstrate for the first time that all seven proteins (tested here) …

Protein adsorption is important for essentially any process that involves the contact of a
protein-containing solution and a material surface, with the resulting formation of the …
