Overview

  • Determine the molar absorptivities of adenosine and inosine.
  • The data that we generate today will be important when we study adenosine deaminase (ADA), which converts adenosine to inosine. The difference between these two molecules is that adenosine contains a primary amine whereas inosine contains a carboxyl group.
  • Adenosine and inosine have different absorption spectra. We will be observing changes in UV-Vis spectra to determine changes in concentration of both adenosine and inosine. In order to do this, we will need to know the molar absorptivity (ε) of both of these molecules.

Description

  1. Determine molar absorptivity of both adenosine and inosine by plotting graphs of A (at one specific wavelength; I suggest you use a peak value from the spectrum) vs c.
  2. Pool data from all of the groups to develop a full calibration curve.
  3. Determine standard deviations from the group's data, a confidence interval, and perform a Q-test to remove any outlying data.
