SALT 2

Caption

An illustration shows two modes of transferrin-nylon interaction, a "hopping" mechanism known as CTRW (orange) and single-site adsorption-desorption (blue). Rice University chemists showed how salt modifies surface interactions in chromatography used to separate drug proteins and suggested limiting CTRW diffusion in the stationary phase will improve separation.
