Abstract

AbstractAdsorption of proteins on solid surfaces is widely studied because of its importance in various biotechnological, medical, and technical applications, e.g., biosensors, cardiovascular implants, and chromatography. Adsorption thermodynamics has been studied on the microbeads of N,N′‐diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) Dextran anion exchanger for the human serum albumin (HSA) at 25, 30, 35, 40, and 45°C. As a result, some thermodynamic parameters like Freundlich constants, thermodynamic equilibrium constant (KD), standard free energy changes (ΔGassoc), standard entropy changes (ΔSassoc), and standard enthalpy change (ΔHassoc) have been evaluated. Using the linear Van't Hoff plot, ΔHassoc value of the system for the interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA)‐adsorbed crosslinked DEAE dextran microbeads was determined as 20.650 kJ/mol. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
