Pulse Radiolysis Study of Egg White

  • 1. Boris Kidric Institute of Nuclear Sciences, Belgrade, Yugoslavia (Serbia)

Description

Radiolytic processes in egg white in intervals of 0.1 μs to several seconds have been studied by the pulse radiolysis technique. The formation and decay of short-lived intermediates and their absorption spectra were observed under varied experimental conditions. The results show that intermediates are produced predominantly in reactions of radicals formed in water radiolysis with egg white proteins. The intermediates decay mainly in the first-order intermolecular processes, though the mechanism of transformations is very complex. (author)
