title: epi-Fluorescence imaging at the air-water interface of fibrillization of bovine serum albumin and human insulin.
abstract: Protein fibrillization is associated with many devastating neurodegenerative diseases. This process has been studied using spectroscopic and microscopic methods. In this study, epi-fluorescence at the air-water interface was developed as an innovative technique for observing fibrillization of bovine serum albumin and human insulin.
