III. Proteins and Materials Flashcards
Intro - All biomaterials adsrob proteins
Intro - Cells never see the bare biomaterial surface
Intro - Relevance of protein characterization at surface
Intro - Goals
Intro - host response to implant surfaces
Proteins (Recap.) - Enormous diversity in structure and function
Proteins (Recap.) - Can be activated by specific, reversible interactions with other proteins/substrates
Proteins (Recap.) - Interaction is regulated by
Proteins (Recap.) - amino acids
Proteins (Recap.) - Many different properties
Proteins (Recap.) - Amino acid sequence determines shape and function of proteins
Surface-protein interactions - Formula
Surface-protein interactions - Adsorption driven by:
Surface-protein interactions - Change in system entropy
Surface-protein interactions - Interactions (decreasing strength)
