40 41It is important for the formulators of biopharmaceuticals to predict the folding-unfolding transition 42 of proteins. This enables them to process proteins at predetermined conditions without 43 denaturation. Depending on apparent denaturation temperature ( ) of lysozyme, we have derived 44 an equation describing its folding-unfolding transition diagram. According to water content and 45 temperature, this diagram was divided into three different areas which are the area of the water-46 folded lysozyme phase, the area of the water-folded lysozyme phase and the bulk water phase, and 47 the area of the denatured lysozyme phase. The amount of water content controlled the appearance 48 and intensity of Raman band at ~1787 cm -1 when lysozyme powders were thermally denatured at 49 temperatures higher than .
