The influence of preadsorbed milk proteins on adhesion of Listeria monocytogenes to silica surfaces

Creator:

Al-Makhlafi, Hamood K.

Abstract:

β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg), bovine serum albumin (BSA), α-lactalbumin (α-Lac), and β-casein were adsorbed onto silanized silica surfaces of low and high hydrophobicity for 8 h, and β-Lg and BSA for 1 h. The surfaces were incubated in buffer for 0, 5, 10, or 15 h and then contacted with Listeria monocytogenes...

The influence of surface functional groups on β-lactoglobulin adsorption equilibrium

Creator:

Al-Makhlafi, Hamood K.

Abstract:

Interactions between proteins and contact surfaces can have important implications in the food industry. Such interactions contribute to the course of fouling of membrane surfaces and they appear to mediate bacterial and spore adhesion to some degree as well. In addition to protein and solution properties, interfacial behavior is strongly...
