✦ Synopsis

Storing ultrasonic data in raw form as it is collected implies the availability of vast backup storage resources. It is shown that by the application of simple compression techniques, the data can be compressed without loss of information by a factor greater than 3. In particular the suitability of A scans to various forms of run length encoding is examined and a particular method is selected and optimized. This involves restricting runs to a maximum of 15 (4 bits) storing long runs as multiples of a 15-length run together with a remainder.

## Abstract The ultrasonic absorption spectra of proteins in solution generally show relaxational behaviour. There will be a corresponding dispersion of sound velocities accompanying each relaxation. The compressibility of the protein as measured by sound velocity techniques will therefore include
