Absence of equilibrium cluster phase in concentrated lysozyme solutions.
In colloidal systems, the interplay between the short range attraction and long-range repulsion can lead to a low density associated state consisting of clusters of individual particles. Recently, such an equilibrium cluster phase was also reported for concentrated solutions of lysozyme at low ionic strength and close to the physiological pH. Stradner et al. [(2004) Equilibrium cluster formatio...
متن کاملEquilibrium clusters in concentrated lysozyme protein solutions.
We have studied the structure of salt-free lysozyme at 293 K and pH 7.8 using molecular simulations and experimental SAXS effective potentials between proteins at three volume fractions, ϕ=0.012, 0.033, and 0.12. We found that the structure of lysozyme near physiological conditions strongly depends on the volume fraction of proteins. The studied lysozyme solutions are dominated by monomers only...
متن کاملNMR detection of an equilibrium phase consisting of monomers and clusters in concentrated lysozyme solutions.
Protein aggregation is an important biophysical phenomenon, and it is technically challenging to quantify. Scattering studies in concentrated protein solutions are not in complete agreement over the existence of an equilibrium cluster phase. We use pulsed-field-gradient NMR spectroscopy to characterize diffusion in the long-time limit in concentrated lysozyme solutions and find strong evidence ...
متن کاملCluster-driven dynamical arrest in concentrated lysozyme solutions.
We present a detailed experimental and numerical study of the structural and dynamical properties of salt-free lysozyme solutions. In particular, by combining small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data with neutron spin echo (NSE) and rheology experiments, we are able to identify that an arrest transition takes place at intermediate densities, driven by the slowing down of the cluster motion. Usi...

چکیده پلاتین، فلزی نجیب، پایدار و گران قیمت با خاصیت کاتالیزوری زیاد است که کاربرد های صنعتی فراوانی دارد. کمپلکس های پلاتین(ii) به عنوان دارو های ضد سرطان شناخته شدند و در شیمی درمانی بیماران سرطانی کاربرد دارند. خاصیت کاتالیزوری و عملکرد گزینشی پلاتین مستقیماً به اندازه و- شکل ماده ی پلاتینی بستگی دارد. بعضی از نانو ذرات فلزی در سطح مشترک مایع- مایع سنتز شده اند، اما نانو ساختار های پلاتین ب...
