Synopsis

Further direct evidences are given that a clear correlation exists between potentiometric and spectroscopic measurements in monitoring the poly( bglutamic acid) helix + coil transition. Specific Li + ion poly(r,-glutamic acid) interactions have been observed, suggesting that Li+ ions may exert a distinct destabilizing action on the helical conformation of the polyelectrolyte.
