37、 flow, Tp. See Fig. 1.9.1.3 Using the apparent transition temperatures thusobtained, calculate the slope (S) and intercept (I)ofthecalibration Eq 1 (see Section 10). The slope and interceptvalues reported should be mean values from duplicate deter-minations based on separate specimens.9.2 One-Point

38、Temperature Calibration:9.2.1 If the slope value (S) previously has been determinedin 9.1 (using the two-point calibration calculation in 10.2)tobesufficiently close to 1.0000, a one-point calibration proceduremay be used.NOTE 3If the slope value differs by only 1 % from linearity (that is,S 1.0100)

39、, a 0.5 K error will be produced if the testtemperature differs by 50 K from the calibration temperature.9.2.2 Select a calibration material from Table 1.

42、 and fill the reference cell with the HCl-glycine buffersolutiontaking care that no air bubbles are retained in eitherof the cells.9.3.2.2 Equilibrate the calorimeter near room temperature,following equilibration the temperature of the calorimeter isramped at 60 K/h until a sufficient baseline is es

43、tablishedbeyond the transition peak.NOTE 4Slower scan rates shall not be used in this step due to potentialaggregation of the denatured protein.9.3.2.3 The enthalpy of the denaturation is calculated byintegration, using a two-state transition baseline. This enthalpyis then divided by the mass of sam

44、ple in the cell. The mass ofsample in the cell, m, is calculated as:m 5 vcwhere:v = the volume of the measuring cell in milliliters.NOTE 5A two state model refers to a model that assumes thedenaturation reaction proceeds from a single native state to a singledenatured state. Although the denaturatio

45、n reaction involves a transitionbetween one manifold of states to another manifold of states, the two-statemodel adequately represents the average behavior for this protein. Theheat capacity of the solution with the native state protein is oftensignificantly different from the heat capacity of the s

46、olution with thedenatured protein. A two-state transition baseline is one that employs aheat capacity calculated from the thermodynamic progression from onestate to the next and the heat capacities of the aqueous solution of the twostates of the protein.9.3.2.4 A second enthalpy of denaturation is c

47、alculatedusing a two-state model and the vant Hoff equation, which isbuilt into the software packages of most fixed-cell calorim-eters.NOTE 6Using the two state model, the equations: Q(T) = Hx(T)K(T) = x/(1-x) define the temperature dependence of the observed curve,if the enthalpy is defined by the

48、vant Hoff relation: dlnK/dT = H/RT2.where Q is the integrated enthalpy observed, H is the enthalpy changefor the two-state reaction, K is the equilibrium constant for the reaction,R is the gas constant, x is the fraction of reactant converted to product andT is temperature. The model can be fitted t

49、o the curve of apparent heatcapacity against temperature. Failure of the two state model occurs fromprecipitation reactions or other reactions that inhibit a reverse reaction inthe thermodynamic equilibrium.9.4 If practical, adjustment to the temperature scale of theinstrument should be made so that temperatures are accuratelyindicated directly.10.
