A Model for Enhanced Nucleation of Protein Crystals on a Fractal Porous Substrate
Abstract
The phenomenon of enhanced nucleation and crystallization of proteins on porous silicon (PS) is theoretically studied and explained. The PS layer is treated as a fractal structure, and a new mechanism of local supersaturation associated with the fractality is proposed. It is shown that the number of adsorbed molecules on a fragment with a fractal surface significantly exceeds that on one with flat surfaces. For a fractal PS surface, a local...
