Influencing the adhesion properties and wettability of mucin protein films by variation of the environmental pH

Mucins, the main component of the mucus secretions of goblet and epithelial cells, are known for exhibiting a different behaviour in accordance with their surrounding environment (i.e. among others the environmental pH), which induces a drastic change in their measured mechanical properties. In this...
