Abstract
The structure of lysozyme aggregates in unsaturated solution was studied by means of the small-angle neutron scattering – contrast variation method. The fact that lysozyme molecules aggregate even in unsaturated solutions and the size of aggregates increases with the increase of the NaCl concentration has been confirmed. Constituent polar molecules in aggregates align parallel with each other on aggregate formation. This indicates that the aggregates could not become precursors of nucleation since the parallel molecular arrangement is not the motif for the crystal of tetragonal form.
