EXPLORING THE KINETICS OF PROTEIN ADSORPTION ON A PLANAR BIOPOLYMER SURFACE
Controlling the protein layer plays a crucial role in designing tissue engineering materials. In our study, we formed a protein layer by exposing collagen at varying concentrations to a thin film piezoelectric polymer (PVDF deposited through Langmuir-Blodgett method) for 18 hours to analyse its adsorption kinetics. Previous characterizations revealed differences in protein-surface interaction, conformation, and roughness in the protein layer. NR experiments will provide data on thickness, roughness and protein coverage over time, crucial for optimizing interactions and facilitating the future modification of PVDF surface potential. After several attempts to get beamtime, our former proposal (No 8-05-480) received a high mark (A8.0) but did not receive beamtime due to national balance (the same was with our previous proposal). This NR experiment are crucial for Paula Rodriguez's PhD thesis (3rd year of PhD study) funded by the Basque Government neutron program. Supervised by Viktor Petrenko and Marite Cardenas, our project aligns with the IKUR Strategy to advance neutron scattering in bio-related materials, making this experiment essential for successfully finish our project.
