Liquid-liquid coexistence surface for lysozyme: Role of salt type and salt concentration
Article Abstract:
Various studies are conducted to study the liquid-liquid phase separation curves for lysozyme in a salt solution, which is supposed to highly depend on the salt type, as well as the salt concentration that further affects the cloud point temperature linearly. Though the analysis provides extremely helpful results, it is assumed that these coexistence surfaces provide only a semiquantative description of the actual lysozyme behavior and hence cannot be accurately used to predict the data from the cloud points.

A small-angle scattering study on equilibrium clusters in lysozyme solutions
Article Abstract:
An investigation on the structural properties of aqueous lysozyme solutions using small-angle scattering experiments is conducted under conditions where the existence of equilibrium clusters is demonstrated. The importance of the existence of equilibrium clusters and the universality of this phenomenon for self-assembling processes observed in nature is highlighted.
