Bovine serum albumin macromolecules interact with vicinal hydroxyl groups of the silica surface at carbonyl groups and with isolated surface hydroxyl groups at the imide groups. Geminal surface hydroxyl groups behave as single adsorption sites relative to albumin adsorption. The concentration of such groups on a quartz surface was evaluated. The secondary structure of globular albumins is altered as the result of interaction in the silica–globular albumin system. Extended β-segments appear on the surface and the concentration of α-spirals decreases. This alteration leads to change in the tertiary globular structure of the albumin. The adsorption of albumin macromolecules on the silica surface is inclined.
