The secondary protein structure was analyzed by means of curve fitting using MagicPlot software (Magicplot Systems, Saint Petersburg, Russia). First, the second derivative spectra were calculated based on the ATR-FTIR spectra to determine the initial peak positioning for the curve fitting. The peaks were fitted using a Gaussian function and the area under the curve was considered at 100%. Each component was expressed as its percentage after fitting.
