The design of a biodegradable, environmentally friendly surfactant is carriedout, taking the structure of a known surfactant that lacks these qualities asthe starting point, using mesoscopic computer simulations. The newly designedsurfactant is found to perform at least as well as its predecessor, without thelatter inimical characteristics. In the second part of this work, a comparativestudy of model proteins with different amino acid sequence interacting withsurfaces is undertaken. The results show that, all other aspects being equal,this sequence is the key factor determining the optimal activity of theproteins near surfaces. These conclusions are found to be in agreement withrecent experiments from the literature.
