  1. 1. Towards First-Principles Understanding of Biomolecular Adsorption

    Author : Svetla Chakarova Käck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; phenol; adenine; graphite; biomolecules; van der Waals interactions; denaturation; protein; lattice models; PAH dimers; adsorption;

    Abstract : A fundamental understanding of the interactions of biomolecules, such as proteins and DNA, with surfaces is of immense importance in numerous applications and poses a true challenge for theory. Density functional theory (DFT) is a quantum-mechanical tool well established for its ability to balance large system size with good accuracy in first-principles studies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Coarse-Grained Modelling of Protein Adsorption

    Author : Kristin Hyltegren; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intrinsically disordered proteins; histatin 5; fibrinogen; protein adsorption; nanotopography; ellipsometry; Monte Carlo simulations; Coarse-grained modelling; charge regulation;

    Abstract : The adsorption of proteins is a very common phenomenon, happening almost always when a protein solution comes into contact with a solid. However, it is far from always clear what the results of adsorption will be in terms of adsorbed amount, protein orientation, and protein conformation. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modification of Surface Properties Through Polymer Adsorption. Kinetics, Interaction, Degradation and Stability

    Author : Dries Muller; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TIRF.; protein; poly lactide ; poly ethylene oxide ; gelatin; exchange; enzyme; ellipsometry; desorption; degradation; adsorption; copolymers; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The interfacial behaviour of polymers in relation to surface modification and polymer degradation was studied. In the first part the interfacial behaviour of amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(D,L-lactide) (EmLn) diblock copolymers at hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates from aquous solution was studied.
