Abstract
The purpose of this study was to show how some aspects of the biological matrix water can be investigated by thermoanalytical methods when using thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. Such methods allow to investigate the water in the rabbit sublingual gland and to quantitate it. The results supported the view that the water contained in this secretory organ show a large number of energetic interactions established on the basis of differential steps of water release by thermal disruption
