'''Rhodamine 6G safety''': | |||
# Rhodamine 6G is mildly flammable. Care must be used at all times when dealing with 1,2-dichloroethane. | |||
# Rhodamine 6G is irritating to eyes. Goggles should be worn whenever using Rhodamine 6G. It is also a fine powder, so open away from face. | |||
# There is limited evidence of the carginogenic effects of Rhodamine 6G. Avoid all Rhodamine 6G skin contact by wearing gloves and goggles. | |||

Objectives
Preparation of HydrogelsGeneral Protocol:
The following procedure was adapted from PVA–clay nanocomposite hydrogels for wound dressing
Observations:
Calcualtions for dye preparation
90:10 ratio (1μMx6mL H2O)/0.0655mL DMSO=91.6μM
(90μM dye wanted) x (1x10-6M/1μM) x (0.05L) x (479.02gdye/mol)=0.0022g dye added to 50mL volumetric flask
(1μMx6mL H2O)/0.0364mL DMSO= 164.84μM
164.84μMdye x (1x10-6M/1μM) x (0.05L) x (7479.02g dye/mol)= 0.004g dye added to 50mL volumetric flask
