Abstract
The swelling and equilibrium stress–strain behavior of elastin in formamide and in its aqueous solution shows a “loosening” effect on the structure of elastin. The nature of the changes are irreversible even after the solvent has been leached out. The possible reason for such structural changes may relate to hydrophobic bonding and hydrogen bonding. Enzymatic studies on the hydrolysis of formamide treated and untreated elastin confirm these same observations.
