Parallel isoelectric focusing II
TLDR
It is shown that the method guarantees the fast and complete separation of any complex protein mixtures under acceptable conditions, such as voltage source, temperature, size of the device, and separation process duration.
Computationally Mapping pKa Shifts Due to the Presence of a Polyelectrolyte Chain around Whey Proteins.
TLDR
Through physical chemistry parameters, free energies of interactions, and the mapping of amino acid pKa shifts and polyelectrolyte trajectories, the charge regulation mechanism is shown to be the most important contributor in protein-polyelectrolete complexation regardless of pH, dipole moment, and protein capacitance in a low salt regime.

TLDR
It is shown that counterions form a strongly correlated liquid at the surface of the macroion that leads to additional attraction of counterions to the surface, which is absent in conventional solutions of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation.
