Investigating the adsorption and surface active behaviour of silk fibroin peptides and mixtures of peptide and conventional surfactants

The work herein investigates the surface active properties of short peptides and their interactions with conventional surfactants. Short peptides can be designed to mimic the structures of conventional surfactants such as SDS and C12TAB. Such peptide structures include V6K peptide, which are attract...
