Abstrakt: This paper describes the effect of far-infrared radiation on the activity and secondary structure of albumin, alcohol dehydrogenase, peroxidase and trypsin. For the first time the data obtained allowed a conclusion that enzymatic activity changes under the influence of radiation having the wavelength of 90 µm. No disruptures of polypeptide chains or oligomerization of proteins were obtained. It has been shown that albumin secondary structure calculated from circular dichroism spectra changes lineary according to dose of laser emission.
