Structure and morphology of adsorbed protein (BSA) layer on hydrophilic silicon surface in presence of mono-, di- and tri-valent ions

Out-of-plane structure and surface morphology of the adsorbed thin films of globular protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) are investigated using X-ray reflectivity (XRR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). BSA adsorption on hydrophilic silicon surface is done by dip coating method in absence and presen...
