Competitive Effects from an Artificial Tear Solution to Protein Adsorption

Abstract

PURPOSE: To compare the adsorption of lysozyme, lactoferrin, and albumin to various contact lens materials, between single-protein solutions and a multicomponent artificial tear solution (ATS). Additionally, extra steps were taken to distinguish loosely and tightly bound protein, the latter of which may be fully or partially denatured. METHODS: Using a previously described ATS, we measured the time-dependent adsorption of lys, lac, and alb onto …
