A commercially available freeze-dry microscopy stage interfaced with an IR microscope is described as a method of in situ measurement of protein secondary structure in the liquid, frozen and freeze-dried states. Studies using solutions of model proteins demonstrated that spectra collected using the

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) of various proteins (bovine serum albumin, lysozyme, ovalbumin, g-globulin, b-lactoglobulin, myoglobin, cytochrome-c) was investigated as a possible analytical method of the protein secondary structure in various physical states. The spectra of proteins in aqueous so
The use of a novel microbalance (Christ) technique to monitor continuously the weight loss of a vial standing on a shelf of a freeze-dryer has been investigated. The drying rates of the following aqueous solutions were measured during the primary drying phase of a complete freeze-drying cycle: sucro
The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanism of protein stabilization by sugars in the solid state. That is, explore whether the stabilization is controlled by "glass dynamics" or by native structure preservation through "specific interaction" between sugars and protein. The IgG1 antibo
