Albumin adsorption on metal surfaces

R L Williams et al. Biomaterials. 1988 May.

Abstract

Studies of adsorption kinetics, desorption and adsorption isotherms concerning the interaction between albumin and a range of metal and metal oxides were undertaken in vitro. Three distinct types of behaviour concerning the adsorption of albumin on to metal surfaces were identified. Some metals adsorb considerably greater amounts of protein than might be expected from surface energy alone and it is suggested that electrostatic forces could be responsible for this phenomenon.
