Minimal model for the secondary structures and conformational conversions in proteins
(University of Waterloo, 2005)Better understanding of protein folding process can provide physical insights on the function of proteins and makes it possible to benefit from genetic information accumulated so far. Protein folding process normally ... -
Optical Biosensing Using Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance of Gold Nanoparticles
(University of Waterloo, 2011-05-25)This thesis describes some experiments developed to probe the fundamental aspects of the interfacial behaviour of proteins. The contents of this thesis can be broadly divided into two parts. In the first part, we ... -
Selected Experiments with Proteins at Solid-Liquid Interfaces
(University of Waterloo, 2008-12-12)This thesis describes a number of novel experiments contributing to the understanding of protein adsorption from both a fundamental and applied perspective. The first three papers involve the use of the localized surface ...
