Sw. Fu et al., DETERMINATION OF REACTION ENTHALPY AND CONFORMATIONAL VOLUME CHANGES BY PHOTOACOUSTIC-SPECTROSCOPY, Spectroscopy letters, 30(7), 1997, pp. 1395-1404
The reaction enthalpy and conformational volume changes can be qualita
tively estimated by means of the temperature-dependent pulsed photoaco
ustic spectroscopy. The curves for heat-releasing fraction and conform
ational volume changes with different temperatures are presented. The
simultaneous equations for determination of the enthalpy and volume ch
anges are established based on temperature-dependent measurements, and
applied to study the photolysis of coenzyme system.
