| Résumé : | 1. 1. A rapid and reproducible method for measurement of lysozyme activity is described. 2. 2. Using this method, the ultra-violet inactivation of lysozyme has been studied and found to conform to a first order reaction. 3. 3. The measured quantum yield for inactivation at 2537 A is 0.024 and remains unaltered over the pH range 3.6 to 12.0. A small effect of concentration on quantum yield is indicated. 4. 4. Inactivation is accompanied by photo-oxidation and other secondary processes, with no apparent liberation of free amino acids or peptides. 5. 5. The relation of molecular weight to quantum yield, as well as the other findings, are discussed. © 1952. |
