Fibril Growth Behavior of Amyloid β on Polymer-Based Planar Membranes: Implications for the Entanglement and Hydration of Polymers

The design of biosensors and artificial organs using biocompatible materials with a low affinity for amyloid β peptide (Aβ) would contribute to the inhibition of fibril growth causing Alzheimer’s disease. We systematically studied the amyloidogenicity of Aβ on various planar membranes. The planar me...
