General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information a nucleation process leads to the formation of non-fibrillar aggregates of lysozyme at physiological pH and 25°C, and 56°C heat-induced aggregation process of hen egg white lysozyme at pH 7.4 and mechanisms underlying aggregation, analysis by atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared absorption and dynamic light scattering, overview. Occurence of a nucleation process simultaneous to a non-nucleative mechanism not leading to formation of lysozyme fibrillar aggregates but to amorphous aggregates composed of high molecular weight oligomers Gallus gallus
