Adsorption of allergen protein at surfaces
Cleaning of processing equipment in the food industry and of surfaces in catering and domestic environments is a key issue in prevention of accidental exposure of individuals with food allergy to allergenic foods. Despite this, little systematic work has been carried out understanding adsorption processes and the effectiveness or otherwise of cleaning procedures. The limiting factor in studying...
متن کاملUnderstanding protein adsorption phenomena at solid surfaces.
Protein adsorption at solid surfaces plays a key role in many natural processes and has therefore promoted a widespread interest in many research areas. Despite considerable progress in this field there are still widely differing and even contradictive opinions on how to explain the frequently observed phenomena such as structural rearrangements, cooperative adsorption, overshooting adsorption ...
متن کاملProtein Adsorption, Cell Adhesion and Polymer Surfaces: Molecular Processes and Experimental Methods
Adsorption of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in competition with other substances is a key to explain the relationship between substratum surface hydrophobicity and mammalian cell adhesion: when polystyrene substrata were exposed simultaneously to ECM protein and a PEO-PPO-PEO polymer surfactant (Pluronic F68), either by pre-conditioning or through protein cell secretion, a weaker substrat...
متن کاملOn-line detection of nonspecific protein adsorption at artificial surfaces.
A detailed understanding of the interaction of proteins with artificial surfaces is essential for many applications in medicine and biochemistry. The affinity of surfaces toward proteins may, for instance, remove pharmacological proteins from media or control the adherence of pathogenic bacteria to protheses. Only a few analytical techniques now exist that can be used to study the binding proce...
متن کاملProtein adsorption at the oil/water interface: characterization of adsorption kinetics by dynamic interfacial tension measurements.
The dynamics of protein adsorption at an oil/water interface are examined over time scales ranging from seconds to several hours. The pendant drop technique is used to determine the dynamic interfacial tension of several proteins at the heptane/aqueous buffer interface. The kinetics of adsorption of these proteins are interpreted from tension/log time plots, which often display three distinct r...
