“…At a fixed pH the surfactant charge significantly influences the conformation and hydrophobic/hydrophilic balance of the formed protein/surfactant complexes [40,41,43], i.e. their surface activity, and subsequently the adsorption, desorption and rheological characteristics of the mixed adsorption layer [15,19,20,28,32]. At pH 7 the SDS/BLG complexes are in an intensive competition for the surface area with increasing amount of unbound surfactant molecules [26,27,36].…”
