Research Abstract |
We aim to elucidate the properties and functions such as molecular recognition of molecular films at the solid-liquid interfaces using the surface forces measurement as a main tool, and contribute to the soft interface science in a flame of biofunctional chemistry. One of the important issue for understanding biological functions is water. Therefore, we have studied the followings: (1) Interfacial water adsorbed on silica surfaces from cyclohexane at different water concentrations. We succeeded to distinguish water adsorbed by chemical interactions such as hydrogen-bonding from one by the phase separation, (2) Poly(ethylene glycol)brushes which are often used as biocompatible surfaces, (3)Specific interactions between proteins:The direct forces measurement provides useful information for nderstanding the interactions between biological molecules.
