The development towards a sustainable society requires a radical change of many of the
materials we currently use. Besides the replacement of plastics, derived from petrochemical …

The deposition of proteins in the form of amyloid fibrils is closely associated with several
serious diseases. The events that trigger the conversion from soluble functional proteins into …

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are highly promising as implantable, degradable
energy sources and self‐powered sensors. However, the degradable triboelectric materials …

Highly ordered, straight amyloid fibrils readily lend themselves to structure determination
techniques and have therefore been extensively characterized. However, the less ordered …

Novel insights into the stability of milk and milk products during storage and processing
result from describing caseins near neutral pH as hydrophilic, intrinsically disordered …

The crystal structure of a material holds immense power over its traits. In fact, both
composition and structure form the bedrock of all physicochemical properties of materials …

Amyloid crystals, a form of ordered protein aggregates documented relatively recently, have
not been studied as extensively as amyloid fibres. This study investigates the formation of …

To clarify the effect of NaCl concentration (0–2.0%) on the formation of amyloid fibrils (AFs)
in cooked wheat noodles, the morphology, surface hydrophobicity, secondary structure …

Even though amyloid aggregates were discovered many years ago the mechanism of their
formation is still a mystery. Because of their connection to many of untreatable …

β-lactoglobulin (BLG) forms amyloid-like aggregates at high temperatures, low pH, and low
ionic strengths. At a pH below 2, BLG undergoes hydrolysis into peptides, with N-terminal …
