Background:
In many evaporation processes of practical importance such as
the evaporation of solvents filled with polymer or in DNA and
protein microarrays, the viscosity of the fluid increases
substantially with solute concentration, and hence during the
evaporation process

Influence of various parameters on
the functionality of printed proteins
Substrate hydrophobicity
Protein binding to substrates
For the protein in aqueous solution, the hydrophilic side
chains are presented at the outside and the hydrophobic to
the inner of the protein to avoid contact with water
Attached to a surface, new interactions become possible
for the protein; in the first step, the protein rearranges its
structure to reach an energetically advantageous
conformation
Because of interactions with adjacent protein molecules
and the surface, additional rearrangements can occur,
resulting in a partly or totally denaturated protein
Are these adsorbed protein molecules still functional ?
