Abstract
The relationship between hydrophobic group adherence and interfacial tension impinges on a wide spectrum of biological activities. Only the more important influences can be considered here and then only very briefly. It is convenient to discuss these in two parts, namely the influence of hydrophobic groups on water-structure, and the potential of variation in interfacial tension on the expression of biopolymer conformational change.
