Abstract

Molecular dynamics simulation is used to investigate the hydration properties of glycine betaine in a large range of solute concentration. Statistical analyses of the system trajectories evidence microscopic details suggesting an interpretation of experimental results recently obtained for aqueous solutions of trimethylamine-N-oxide, a bioprotectant closely related to glycine betaine.
