New cards
Surface tension/energy
The force that acts on the surface of a liquid, causing it to minimize its surface area and form droplets.
2
New cards
Protein absorption
The process by which proteins bind to a surface, reducing surface tension/energy.
3
New cards
Secondary bonding
The type of bonding that occurs between proteins and biomaterial surfaces, involving interactions with amide groups on amino acid side chains.
4
New cards
Vroman effect
The displacement of more abundant and motile proteins by less abundant and less motile proteins with higher affinity for a surface.
