ObjectiveTo make Lysozyme-AuNP fiber for future experiments. ProcedureDr. Hartings left a procedure for us to use in his lab notebook (also listed below). Target Concentrations Based on the total reaction volume that the class will be using and the final concentrations that will be in each reaction volume, I have determined that the following HAuCl4·H2O and Lysozyme masses are appropriate for today's stock solutions. Stock solutions HAuCl4·H2O 2.5 mM MW = 339.79 g/mol Volume = 50 mL 42.4 mg Lysozyme 20 μM MW = 14307 g/mol Volume = 100 mL 28.6 mg Actual Concentrations The actual masses are different from the target masses. The concentrations shown below reflect the actual concentrations made for the stock solutions. I used a 50 mL volumetric flask to make the gold stock solution and a 100 mL volumetric flask to make the protein solution. In each case I used HPLC-grade water.
