D SURFACE COATING U=-∫F(D)dD  Initial protein adsorption will be determined by longer range, larger spatial length scale of averaged surface properties : many different attractive/ repulsive components lead to complicated interactions (Szleifer, I., 1997, Halperin, A., 1999 Leckband, D., et al., 2000)  Secondary stages of protein adsorption depend on shorter range biomolecular adhesive binding processes that take place when the protein is in close contact with the surface (*the conformation, orientation, and mobility of the adsorbed proteins, the time scale of conformational changes, protein exchange and desorption, and interactions of adsorbed proteins with each other) BIOMATERIAL

7. HSA versus PEO : Effect of NaCl IS Approach CONCLUSION: Electrostatic double layer and configurational entropy are outweighed by another interaction which increases with IS →possibly due to water interphase layer R F (PEO) ● Salt screening : electrostatic double layer force expected↓ with ↑IS ● NaCl reduces the goodness of solvent for PEO (Armstrong, et al. 2001) : configurational entropy force expected↓ with ↑IS Rixman, et al. 2003 unpublished data
