Conclusions
-
1.
The authors have studied the radiolysis of glucose in phosphoric acid solutions at 77°K by the EPR method.
-
2.
The transition Rphos → Rglucose was detected during heating of irradiated specimens.
-
3.
Like the formation of radicals from phosphoric acid, the formation of radicals from glucose at the temperature of liquid nitrogen may be due to capture of H2O+ by these molecules.
