IR peaks of a protein
« on: June 14, 2006, 01:38:03 PM »
hi

It seems that IR-spectra of proteins always show two peaks: 1650/cm and 1530/cm (i.e. 4040/inch and 3750/inch  ;D, in case you say it that way ...)

the 1650 peak is for the C=O in the amid. what is the 1530? Is the C-N so much a C=N that it absorbs that far up?

thanks

It not necesary conver cm to inch in IR Spectroscopy...

Also I attached a pdf file about FTIR and Proteins...

ok thanks, it seems like that second peak really is the C-N vibration

thanks, that seems pretty cool. I needed a little information to write a protocoll
