You are performing an in vitro experiment in which you will expose a material you are
  considering for a medical device to synovial fluid, which contains the proteins albumin,
  transferrin, and IgM at concentrations of 5, 0.5, and 0.05 mg/ml, respectively. Each of these
  components has a particular affinity for your material, with IgM being the highest and
  albumin being the lowest.
 
  a. Describe the kinetics of protein adsorption to your material and how the surface
  concentration of each protein will change with time.
 
 

  b. Subsequently in the experiment, more albumin is added to the synovial fluid. What effec
  will this have on the proteins adsorbed on the surface?
 

  c. The graph below shows the amount of IgM adsorbed to the material surface as a function
  of time. What will happen on the material surface with the addition of more IgM?
