“…BSA probably has a great affinity for lignin and lignin containing substrates due to its highly hydrophobic nature, isoelectric point (pI), and formation of highly hydrophobic agglomerates at temperatures above about 508C (Echterhoff et al, 2001) and could coat exposed lignin to prevent unspecific, unproductive cellulase adsorption, thus making more enzyme available for hydrolysis (Willies, 2007;Yang and Wyman, 2006). Furthermore, BSA may enhance enzyme stability (Huang and Monk, 2004;Robert, 1983) and reduce the hydrophobicity of surfaces, facilitating cellulase adsorption and desorption (Niamsiri et al, 2007;Park et al, 2002;Tilton et al, 1991). However, the interaction of BSA with the substrate surface may be affected by temperature, pH, ionic strength, substrate hydrophobicity, and surface charge (Chandra et al, 2007;Echterhoff et al, 2001;Ha et al, 1993;Halder et al, 2005).…”

“…However, this may not be the only explanation. As reported by Niamsiri et al, BSA can interact with and stabilize growing surface polymers 28 . We are currently investigating whether BSA can also interact with the growing DNA polymers and if this is crucial to the activity of TdT.…”

“…However, no elongation of protruding DNA strands was observed from the recruited enzymes. It has previously been reported that enzymatic activity on surfaces is improved by the presence of BSA 28 . We therefore investigated the possibility of using BSA to promote nucleotide polymerization.…”

“…After ESIP investigations on PLA fibers, PHB granules were coated on and throughout the fibers with an average diameter of 350 nm (Figure 1). We also have found that the molecular weight (M w ), molecular number (M n ), and polydispersity index (PDI) of ESIP PHB on gold surfaces are 0.59 x 10 5 g/mol 1.06 x 10 5 g/mol and 1.8, respectively [15].
