Mechanisms of the influence of UV irradiation on collagen and collagen-ascorbic acid solutions

The study of the influence of UV irradiation on collagen solutions has shown the destabilization of the collagen molecule by calorimetric method. It is reflected both in changes of thermodynamic parameters of transition (Tm, ΔH, Cp=f(t)) and in the appearance of a low temperature peak, that is pract...
