The design and application of a high-pressure sample cell is described for circular dichroism studies of molecular systems that undergo conformational change with application of high pressure. Mechanical and optical problems in highpressure cells, safety considerations in cell design, and the pressurizing system are discussed. Operating procedures developed to yield reproducible data and the results of a trifluoroethanol solution of a derivative of gramicidin A used as an example are outlined.

The design of a thin quartz cell suitable for absorption and circular dichroism measurements in the vacuum ultraviolet is described. Important features of the cell are (1) that it can be disassembled for cleaning and reproducibly reassembled with path lengths up to 0.3 mm, and (2) that strain in the
HPLC/circular dichroism detection using a conventional spectrophotometric detector has been established. A split-type flow cell developed for a polarized photometric detector, which is a non-modulated polarimeter, was inserted into this detector. When two rays of circularly polarized light with oppo
