Stability of lysozyme in aqueous extremolyte solutions during heat shock and accelerated thermal conditions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the stability of lysozyme in aqueous solutions in the presence of various extremolytes (betaine, hydroxyectoine, trehalose, ectoine, and firoin) under different stress conditions. The stability of lysozyme was determined by Nile red Fluorescence Spectrosc...
