Abstract
Although human calcitonin (hCT) is a potential drug, an everyday admin istration of hCT solutions is impossible because hCT aggregates within a short time. To understand the aggregation process in more detail, w e investigated the dominating interparticle interactions by static (SL S) and dynamic (DLS) light scattering experiments, which were analyzed using concepts from the theory of complex fluids.
