  • Abstract
    We use a rapid data acquisition technique to test reproducibility and inhibitor binding sensitivity of the recently reported narrow band resonances for lysozyme protein crystals using THz microscopy. The spectra are reproducible, and change dramatically with inhibitor binding. The results indicate the resonances arise from intramolecular modes.
