Heteroprotein complex formation of bovine serum albumin and lysozyme: Structure and thermal stability

The formation of a heteroprotein complex obtained by the interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and lysozyme (Lys) was investigated by pH variation using turbidimetric analysis and zeta potential (ζ) at different protein ratios and NaCl concentrations. The complexes were formed in a pH range between 8.0 and 11.0, with the ratio r = 0.5 at pH 9.0 presenting the highest complexation. The addition of NaCl decreased the interaction at...
