Multifunctional Amphicharged Surfactants: Unraveling pH and Thermal Modulation of Their Interactions with Bovine Serum Albumin

Proteins on interaction with surfactants are known to undergo structural and functional alterations. These protein-surfactant interactions are crucial for their applications in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Despite having various studies involving the interactions of albumins with surfactants, most of them are done at a standard pH (pH 7) and temperature (298 K). Peptide-based surfactants can be designed to have multiple amino and carboxylic acid groups, which would allow them to e
