Modelling random antibody adsorption and immunoassay activity by D. Mackey, E. Kelly, R. Nooney

“…In this paper we propose a simple mathematical model, based on the theoryknown as random sequential adsorption (RSA), in order tocalculate how the concentration ofcorrectly oriented antibodies (active site exposed forsubsequent reactions) evolves during the deposition process.It has been suggested by experimental studies that high concentrationswill decrease assay performance, due to molecule denaturation andobstruction of active binding sites. …”

Glycerol Carbonate: A Novel Biosolvent with Strong Ionizing and Dissociating Powers by Guangnan Ou, Biyan He, Xuejing Li, Jianhui Lei

“…Due to the weak ionizing and dissociating powers of common organic solvents, the charge of the protein will change significantly when the protein is transferred from water to common organic solvents, resulting in protein denaturation. In this work, glycerol carbonate (GC) was synthesized, which ionizing and dissociating abilities were very close to those of water. …”
