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 …

Although the denaturing of adsorbed proteins on biomaterials surfaces is believed to lead to
adverse tissue reactions to implanted materials, very little is currently known of the actual …

This paper concisely reviews the general principles underlying protein adsorption from
aqueous solution onto a solid surface. The discussion includes the various stages of the …

The generally positive correlation between the extent of protein adsorption and the
hydrophobicity of the adsorbent surface suggests that the hydrophobic interaction is a major …

Publisher Summary Proteins are interfacially active molecules; this is easily demonstrated
by the spontaneous accumulation of proteins at interfaces. Protein is an amphoteric …

Recent theoretical and experimental results pertinent to protein adsorption kinetics obtained
for well-defined systems using direct experimental techniques are discussed. Attention is …

The state-of-the-art of protein adsorption on solid surfaces is reviewed from a colloid-
chemical and thermodynamic viewpoint. Important aspects of the discussion are …

The causes of protein heterogeneity during adsorption on different types of surfaces are
examined. The analysis includes surfaces for adsorption, monolayer adsorption …

Since protein adsorption at the solid-solution interface can and does take place over a wide
range of ionicstrengths, it is important to understand whether the kinetics measured under …

Knowledge on the binding behaviour of proteins, polypeptides or amino acids at liquid–solid
interfaces provides valuable insight into the molecular mechanisms of protein–protein or …
