Methods of modulating interfacial characteristics in a self-assembled, force-transmitting peptide network at a fluid-fluid interface are disclosed. The methods involve exposing a peptide capable of participating in a self-assembled, force-transmitting peptide network, either before or after it interacts with other peptides to form the peptide network to a stimulus that alters the chemical and/or physical properties of the peptide. Use of such methods in applications such as emulsions and foams are also disclosed.
本发明揭示了在液液界面上自组装的、传递力的肽网络中调节界面特性的方法。该方法涉及将能够参与自组装、传递力的肽暴露于刺激物之下,该刺激物能够改变肽的化学和/或物理性质,不论是在肽与其他肽相互作用形成肽网络之前还是之后。本发明还揭示了在乳液和泡沫等应用中使用这种方法的方法。
