Aggregation of β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) was inhibited through the stabilization of the native structure by various non-covalent interactions of coumarin derivatives. The 8-hydroxy compound was most effective against the self-assembly of β-lg.
The aggregation of proteins has been associated with several aspects of daily life, including food processing, blood coagulation and many neurodegenerative infections.
