Figure 4
Guinier plots for lysozyme solution at 1 atm and 400 MPa. The intensity data (filled circles, empty circles) of Fig. 3 were used. The inserted number and bar indicate the scale of the vertical axis. For clarity, each plot is shifted along the vertical axis. Indeed, I(0) at 400 MPa indicates 57.6% of I(0) at 1 atm. This decrease is attributed mainly to a change in the transmission, which decreases by 37% when the pressure is increased to 400 MPa. Another factor may be a change in the density contrast between the solute and the solvent by pressure. |
