A theoretical analysis is presented for the flattening of absorption and circular dichroic spectra of suspensions of membrane sheets containing proteins. Equations are presented to describe the dependence of this artifact on the size of the sheets. Values for the flattening coefficients QA and QB are calculated both as a function of absorptivity and sheet size. These studies show that sonication in an inadequate procedure for eliminating flattening in these samples.
本文对含有蛋白质的膜片悬浮液的吸收光谱和圆二色光谱的扁平化进行了理论分析。给出了描述这种假象与膜片大小相关性的方程。计算了扁平化系数QA和QB作为吸光率和膜片大小函数的值。这些研究表明,超声处理并非消除这些样品中扁平化的合适方法。
