The Serological Diagnosis of Syphilis

A study on the protein concentration dependence of the thermodynamics of micellization

“…Evidently, this means that the surfactants are being adsorbed onto the protein. Other authors confirmed this mechanism by using different techniques [20][21][22]. This is an expected result if we consider that the protein surface acts like an interface allowing fluorinated molecules to be adsorbed.…”

Latent phenolase in extracts of broad-bean (Vicia faba L.) leaves. 2. Activation by anionic wetting agents

“…With a prophenolase such combination might permit configurational changes in the molecule which unmask the catalytic centre. In this connexion, it is of interest that the results of studies of the combination of albumin with large anions (Karusch, 1952) or SDS (Neurath & Putnam, 1945) suggest that unfolding or expansion of the protein molecule takes place as the number of bound ions increases.…”
