Abstract
Inactivation of monomolecular layers of bovine serum albumin was studied as a function of the energy of the incident electrons. The results indicate that at least 2 processes occur in the inactivation: one caused by electrons of about 2.2 ev is comparable to that initiated by UV, the other caused by electrons of more than 10-12 ev is probably the result of ionization. The ratio of probabilities of the 2 processes is about 30:1 with ionization predominating.Keywords
