The aggregation of proteins is of fundamental relevance in a number of daily phenomena,
as important and diverse as blood coagulation, medical diseases, or cooking an egg in the …

Proteins are highly labile molecules, thus requiring the presence of appropriate solvents and
excipients in their liquid milieu to keep their stability and biological activity. In this field, ionic …

Bolus vaccines are often administered multiple times due to rapid clearance and reduced
transportation to draining lymph nodes resulting in inadequate activation of T and B …

Vaccination via the oral administration of an antigen faces many challenges, including
gastrointestinal (GI) proteolysis and mucosal barriers. To limit GI proteolysis, a …

Ions are ubiquitous in nature. They play a key role for many biological processes on the
molecular scale, from molecular interactions, to mechanical properties, to folding, to self …

Tuning of protein surface charge is a fundamental mechanism in biological systems. Protein
charge is regulated in a physiological context by pH and interaction with counterions. We …

The effective interactions and phase behavior of protein solutions under strong electrostatic
coupling conditions are difficult to understand due to the complex charge pattern and …

We present a detailed experimental and numerical study of the structural and dynamical
properties of salt-free lysozyme solutions. In particular, by combining small-angle X-ray …

Understanding food properties is paramount for enhancing features such as appearance,
taste and texture, for improving health-related factors such as minimizing the onset of …

A new optimized size exclusion chromatography small-angle X-ray scattering (SEC-SAXS)
system for biomolecular SAXS at the Australian Synchrotron SAXS/WAXS beamline has …
