Analytical applications of partitioning in aqueous two-phase systems: Exploring protein structural changes and protein–partner interactions in vitro and in vivo by solvent interaction analysis method

This review covers the fundamentals of protein partitioning in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS). Included is a review of advancements in the analytical application of solute partitioning in ATPS over the last two decades, with multiple examples of experimental data providing evidence that phase-forming polymers do not interact with solutes partitioned in ATPS. The partitioning of solutes is governed by the differences in solute interactions with...
