    • Cut a piece of 3500 MWCO flat dialysis tubing, wet it, and insert it in the 5-well dialysis chamber
    • Clamp the dialysis chamber shut
    • Filled one side of each well with 1 mL of our 0.5 g/L Lysozyme solution
      • Transfered 1 mL to a plastic test tube using a pippetter, then
      • Carefully filled each well with with a glass Pasteur pipette
    • Filled the other side of the well with one of the following solutions
      • HPLC water, 0.25 mM HCl, 50 mM CaCl2, 500 μM CaCl2, or 50 mM NaCl
      • Each well has a different solution, which will be tested tomorrow
    • Inserted top screws to prevent leaking/evaporation
    • Tomorrow, UV-vis analysis will be done on all of the solutions from each well.

Data

Ca2 calibration curve

  • For the 0.5 g/L Lysozyme, 0.00570g Lysozyme used.
  • For NaCl serial dilution 0.0713g NaCl was placed in 25 mL of water
  • For the 0.25 mM HCl, a new solution was made containing HPLC water rather than DI water


The figure below shows the calibration curve for CaCl2. A logarithmic scale was used because the concentration values of the salt vary by an order of magnitude between each value.

In the figure below, the values of the potential were taken after the addition of ions. If the ion added first did not affect the value of the potential, the next ion was added to that same solution. As can be seen below, there is essentially no change in the potential value measured after the addition of any of the ions. This means that the presence of other ions has no effect on the potential reading of CaCl2.
