A Raman Study of the Hydration of Wet-Spun Films of Li-hyaluronate (p. 153-158)

Raman spectroscopy between 620 and 1700 cm-1 has been performed on wet-spun films of Li-hyaluronate as a function of relative humidity between 54 and 93% at room temperature. The observed vibrational modes show no significant dependence on water content, suggesting that the molecule does not undergo any conformational transitions in this humidity range.
