Nonmonotonic variation with salt concentration of the second virial coefficient in protein solutions.

The osmotic virial coefficient B2 of globular protein solutions is calculated as a function of added salt concentration at fixed pH by computer simulations of the "primitive model." The salt and counterions as well as a discrete charge pattern on the protein surface are explicitly incorpor...
