✦ Synopsis


We mimic the presence of proteins inside reverse micelles by an association potential. This potential shifts the percolation threshold which exists for empty micelles. The statistical mechanics of this system is solved using Wertheim's theory. In particular, the theory predicts that the shift of the percolation threshold which depends on the solvent may exhibit an absolute maximum value.

## Abstract One of the forms of the insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) binding proteins present in human amniotic fluid has been shown to potentiate the growth‐promoting effect of IGF‐I markedly. This study was undertaken to determine the cellular and hormonal factors that modulate this potentiation
