Abstract

Experimental and theoretical studies of biomolecules at water surfaces and metal surfaces are presented. We studied lecithin molecules (monolayers) and phospholipase A2 at a water surface with Molecules dynamics (MD) simulations. Results were compared with those obtained for a pure water surfAcc. We also studied amino acids at a TiO2 surface with thermal desorption spectroscopy in the presence and absence of water.
