Competitive Adsorption of a Monoclonal Antibody and Nonionic Surfactant at the PDMS/Water Interface.

ABSTRACT: Interfacial adsorption of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) can cause structural deformation and induce undesired aggregation and precipitation. Nonionic surfactants are often added to reduce interfacial adsorption of mAbs which may occur during manufacturing, storage, and/or administration. As mAbs are commonly manufactured into ready-to-use syringes coated with silicone oil to improve lubrication, it is important to understand how an mAb, nonionic surfactant, and silicone oil interact at the oil/water interface. In this work, we have coated a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) nanofilm onto an optically flat silicon substrate to facilitate the measurements of adsorption of a model mAb, COE-3, and a commercial nonionic surfactant, polysorbate 80 (PS-80), at the siliconized PDMS/water interface using
