| #UV/Vis | | #Solutions were made with the mole ratios of ([[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/HAuCl4|HAuCl<sub>4</sub>]]/[[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/BSA|BSA]]) 60, 80, 100, 120, 128, 130, 132, 133, 134, 136, 138, 140, 160, and 170. Volume of [[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/HAuCl4|HAuCl<sub>4</sub>]] stock solution was calculated for each tube and inserted. The water needed for each tube was calculated by subtracting the volume of [[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/HAuCl4|HAuCl<sub>4</sub>]] stock solution and [[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/BSA|BSA]] stock solution from 6mL. |
| ##1mL of each solution with a varying mole ratios of [[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/HAuCl4|HAuCl<sub>4</sub>]] and [[AU_Biomaterials_Design_Lab:Materials/BSA|BSA]] was inserted into a cuvette, which went into a UV/Vis Spectroscoper
