The most frequently marketed hiopharmaceuticals include monoclonal antihody-hased products for cancer treatment and autoimmune diseases, therapeutic vaccines, insulin for diabetes treatment, human growth hormone for supplementation in hormone deficiency, and interferon-a for treatment of hepatitis B and/or C. Some protein agents such as vaccines, hormones, growth factors and enzymes have the opportunity to be used...

Foams are used industrially and are important in rubber preparations (foamed-latex) and in fire fighting. The foam floats as a continuous layer across the burning surface, so preventing the evolution of inflammable vapours. Foams are also used in gas absorption and in the separation of proteins from biological fluids. See anti-foaming agents. 

Protein adsorption has been studied with a variety of techniques such as ellipsome-try [107,108], ESCA [109], surface forces measurements [102], total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRE) [103,110], electron microscopy [111], and electrokinetic measurement of latex particles [112,113] and capillaries [114], The TIRE technique has recently been adapted to observe surface diffusion [106] and orientation [IIS] in adsorbed layers. These experiments point toward the significant influence of the protein-surface interaction on the adsorption characteristics [105,108,110]. A very important interaction is due to the hydrophobic interaction between parts of the protein and polymeric surfaces [18], although often electrostatic interactions are also influential [ 116]. Protein desorption can be affected by altering the pH [117] or by the introduction of a complexing agent [118]. 

Carbohydrates. The materials offered for fat replacement are either carbohydrate or protein and protein-like compounds (29). Table 3 fists carbohydrate fat-sparing agents. Another fisting is available (34) which includes materials offered on the European market. New compounds appear at such a rate that it is difficult to keep a current compilation proceedings from an aimual meeting are published (48). 

Gelatin can be a source of essential amino acids when used as a diet supplement and therapeutic agent. As such, it has been widely used in muscular disorders, peptic ulcers, and infant feeding, and to spur nail growth. Gelatin is not a complete protein for mammalian nutrition, however, since it is lacking in the essential amino acid tryptophan [73-22-3] and is deficient in sulfur-containing amino acids.
