β-Lactoglobulin adsorption equilibrium at low- and high-energy surfaces

Creator:

Al-Malah, Kamal Issa Masoud

Abstract:

Ellipsometry was used to study the effects of surface energetics and temperature on the equilibrium adsorptive behavior exhibited by β-lactoglobulin. β-Lactoglobulin isotherms at 25, 37, and 55°C were constructed for this purpose. The surfaces of acrylic, polycarbonate, polyester, glass, and #304 stainless steel were contacted with protein solutions of varying...
