ObjectiveThe purpose of today's lab work is to:
ProtocolDr. Hartings's protocol for today is here. We are following his protocols for fluorescence and for the Bradford Assay. Fluorescence Analysis of Protease DegradationYesterday, we measured the fluorescence of all of our samples of alpha-chymotrypsin + lysozyme. Today, we finished the fluorescence measurements for the alpha-chymotrypsin blanks as follows:
Brasford Analysis of Protease Degradation
Data and AnalysisFluorescenceThe above figure shows the fluorescence of lysozyme in samples of varying concentrations of alpha-chymotrypsin as a function of the wavelength of incident light. The fluorescence of each sample was corrected for the blanks by subtracting the fluorescence of the blank from the fluorescence of the sample for every wavelength measured. Each curve on the graph represents a different concentration of alpha-chymotrypsin. The above image shows the fluorescence intensity of lysozyme as a function of the concentration of alpha-chymotrypsin that it is reacted with. Bradford AssayThe figure above shows the absorbance of the blank as a function of the wavelength of incident light. The blank is the same blank that was made and measured in the protocol from September 23. This blank consisted of the Bradford Assay Reagent, Bradford Assay Buffer, and 50mM Tris + 50mM NaCl buffer. There was no protease, protein, or AuNP in this blank.
The figure above shows the absorbance of the alpha-chymotrypsin blanks as a function of the wavelength of incident light. Each colored curve represents a blank that was incubated for a specific amount of time as indicated in the legend. These values are not corrected; they are the raw data.
The figure above shows the absorbance of the AuNP fiber samples as a function of the wavelength of incident light. Each colored curve represents a sample that was incubated for a specific amount of time as indicated in the legend. These values are not corrected; they are the raw data.
The figure above shows the absorbance of the alpha-chymotrypsin blanks as a function of the wavelength of incident light. The absorbance values for each of the alpha-chymotrypsin blanks were corrected by subtracting the absorbance value of the blank from the absorbance value of the alpha-chymotrypsin blanks for every wavelength. Each colored curve represents an alpha-chymotrypsin blank that was incubated for a specific amount of time as indicated in the legend.

The absorbance values for each of the samples were corrected by subtracting the absorbance value of the blank from the absorbance value of the samples for every wavelength.
