Fig. 2: Adhesion between fruits and ALP.
From: Preserving fruit freshness with amyloid-like protein coatings
a Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations illustrate the interfacial adhesion between fruit wax and lysozyme as well as its amyloid-like variant. b Binding energy and contact area of lysozyme and amyloid-like lysozyme on the wax surface after simulation. c CD spectra of native lysozyme, PTL, and ALP. d The peeling strength of ALP coating and native protein adsorption layer during the 180° peeling test. Data are mean ± S.D. n = 3 independent samples per group. e Optical images depicting ALP agent and native lysozyme solution interactions on fruit surfaces. f Sequential optical images showing a sessile ALP droplet on various fruit peels at time points t = 0 s and 60 s. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
