Determination of reactivity of compounds toward the electron under low-temperature irradiation conditions

1.	We determined the reactivity of some nitrogen bases, and of a number of amino acids and bis-(diazoacetyl)alkyl derivatives toward the electron at 77°K.
2.	The effect of the pH at 77°K as established on the yield of the deamination process and the reactivity of the studied amino acids toward the electron.
3.	It was found that the yield for the deamination of glutamic acid is increased in the presence of inositol (acceptor of OH radicals).
