The article deals with dendritic structures resulting from self-organization processes in aqueous solutions of albumin proteins. The methods for obtaining the structures and experimental results are presented. It is shown that dendrites are fractal structures that are symmetric under certain conditions of their formation and can have different characteristics depending on the isothermal dehydration of liquid samples. The fractal dimension of the structures in films of the albumin protein solution has been calculated. Dependences of the fractal dimension on the concentrations of salts and protein in the initial solutions and also on the dehydration temperature have been revealed. It has been shown that as the protein concentration in the solution grows, the salt concentration for the initiation of the dendritic structure formation increases. It has been found that the temperature dependences of the fractal dimension of the structures become smoother with increasing protein concentration in solutions. The relationship between geometric characteristics of dendrites and self-organization parameters during drying is discussed.
