  • Abstract
    THz spectroscopy was used to investigate bovine serum albumin (BSA) flexibility in conditions ranging from lyophilised BSA to dilute 10% w/w BSA solution and highly concentrated 50% w/w BSA solutions. The simulated THz spectra of dry and hydrated BSA are in good agreement with the experiments.
