摘要
The inactivation of lysozyme was measured in the following conditions: 40-500 μg/ml. in 0·05 M phosphate buffer, pH 6-7, 0°c, in the presence of air. The activity decreased linearly with the dose to < 25 per cent residual activity. The yield was 0·18 molecules/(100 eV). p-Aminobenzoic acid, cysteine and phenylalanine have a protective action, which parallels their rates of reaction with (OH· radicals; this indicates that (OH· is primarily responsible for inactivation of the enzyme. The meaning of the activity-dose relationship and the value of the yield are discussed. © 1969 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
