“…Moreover, our studies show that the extent of compound adsorption to beads in the absence of HLM is negligible (data not shown). Furthermore, we previously showed that phospholipids can block HLM from binding to the beads, which indicates that it is possible to block the binding of material to the beads (Horspool et al, 2020). Thus, we hypothesized that the HLM would have the same effect of blocking other compounds from binding to the beads.…”
