    Alkhatib, Aveen K.
    Abstract:
    The adsorption behavior of a human recombinant Factor VIII (rFVIII) in the presence of the nonionic, poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock surfactant Pluronic® F-68 was evaluated by dynamic air-water tensiometry. Surface tension kinetics were recorded for F-68 in the absence of protein at concentrations ranging from 0 to 10,000...

  • Molecular origins of surfactant-mediated stabilization of protein

    Creator:
    Lee, Hyo Jin
    Abstract:
    Nonionic surfactants are commonly used to stabilize proteins during upstream and downstream processing and drug formulation. Surfactants stabilize the proteins through two major mechanisms: (i) their preferential location at nearby interfaces, in this way precluding protein adsorption; and/or (ii) their association with protein into "complexes" that prevent proteins from interacting...
