Title: Quantal self-assembly of polymer layers in polypeptide multilayer nanofilms. Author: Haynie DT, Zhang L, Zhao W, Smith JM. Journal: Biomacromolecules; 2006 Aug; 7(8):2264-8. PubMed ID: 16903669. Abstract: Simple molecular models predict key aspects of the "microscopic" assembly behavior of various peptide systems in the fabrication of multilayer films. Such films show substantial differences in density for different peptide systems. The data suggest that exponential film growth is possible in the absence of polymer diffusion and that "macroscopic" assembly behavior is more a function of peptide-peptide interactions than peptide sequence alone.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
