Proteins at Interfaces III State of the Art 2012Thomas Horbett, John L. Brash, Willem Norde This book is based on the Proteins at Interfaces III symposium held at the 243rd American Chemical Society meeting in San Diego March of 2012. The chapters in the book are grouped into five general areas: physical chemistry, computer simulation, biological effects, protein resistant surfaces, and techniques for the study of protein adsorption and adsorbed proteins. We considered these to be major categories into which the research in this area falls; the introductory chapter is organized along the same lines. We also wish to point out that the various chapters typically include elements that represent more than one of these areas; we placed them in the topic area we felt they were most closely related to. This is the third volume of its type to appear. |
