## Abstract The investigation of the factors determining the formation and stability of the higher biopolymers structures is one of the most important trends of the development of molecular biophysics. A feature common to most macromolecular systems under physiological conditions is that they funct

This study shows how collagen molecules are readily damaged by y-radiation at dosages commonly used for sterilizing biomedical products. At 1 Mrad, while the reported effectiveness of the radiation at such a low dosage to completely sterilize a material is questionable, less damage was caused to the
The effect of y irradiation on the content of anhydrouronic acid (AUA), degree of esterification @E), MW and MW-distribution, in addition to the ability to form sugar-acid-gel was investigated. At dose of 2 kGy, a slight increase in the AUA content was observed, obviously DE was decreased. A dramati
me use of electron microscopic images to extract information concerning the parameters that characterize the flexibility of linear polymers in solution has been described by several authors.'-4 These attempts clearly rely on the hypothesis that interaction with the supporting substrate does not alte
Infrared spectra of hydrogen-bonded organic compound 2-biphenylmethanol has been studied in the wide temperature range from 320 to 12 K. It has been found that IR spectra drastically changed with temperature in the 700-850, 1290-1500, and 3100-3600 cm 21 spectral regions, where deformational vibrati
## Abstract Native (n) but not single stranded (ss) DNA was found to induce release of ^3^H‐serotonin (5‐HT) from platelets of the majority of normal individuals. However, ssDNA markedly enhanced 5‐HT release induced by heat‐aggregated IgG (aggIgG), while less enhancement was seen using nDNA. Simil
