Kinetics of SHMP-induced amyloid fibril formation, measured by ThT fluorescence: (A) Aggregation kinetics of α-LA (0.2 mg mL−1) without (black) and with various concentrations 0.01 (blue), 0.07 (magenta), 0.2 (green), and 1.0 (navy blue) mM of SHMP at pH 2.0. The control was also measured without α-LA and SHMP (red) at pH 2.0. (B) The fluorescence intensity at 485 nm was plotted against different concentrations of SHMP on different days at pH 2.0.
