The adsorption of biological peptides and proteins at the oil/water interface. A potentially important but largely unexplored field

This review focuses on some new techniques to study the behavior of peptides and proteins bound to oil droplets. We will show how model peptides e.g., amphipathic α helices (AαH) and amphipathic β strand (AβS) and some apolipoproteins adsorb to triacylglycerol (TAG) droplets and how they behave once...
