The consistency of the results of fitting the DSC data to complete Lumry-Eyring and Two-state modelswas assessed for cupper containing amine oxidase from Euphorbia characias (ELAO). Thermaldenaturation of ELAO was reported to be irreversible two-state. Least square fitting of experimental andmodels were done using Solver function of Excel software. Results showed that fitting parameters for twomodels are in very good agreement, but two extra parameters are obtained in Lumry-Eyring model, T1/2and H. Lumry-Eyring model gives large difference between T1/2 and T* separating thermal effects of two steps. The low values of H and T 1/2 cause that the thermal effects of first step (Equilibrium) oflumry-Eyring model to be omitted. This means that in low temperatures, the unfolded and fold states arein fast equilibrium.
