Ultra-thin Heteroprotein Films

Recently, scientists from the Institute of Advanced Study in Science and Technology (IASST), Guwahati, an autonomous institute under the Department of Science and Technology, have developed ultra-thin heteroprotein films which can pave the way for expanding applications of thin films in biomedical and food packaging industries.

  • In the recent past, several modifications of protein films with the help of suitable heteroprotein complexes were reported by different research groups. These complexes were usually developed from bulk solutions.

Key Points

  • Two Proteins: The team successfully developed ultrathin monolayer protein films consisting of two globular proteins: bovine serum albumin (BSA) and lysozyme (Lys). ....
