Objectives

  • Finish polydopamine nanofiber scaffolds

Procedures

  • Polydopamine nanofibers
    • Put scaffold into 10mL test tube to conduct Myoglobin nanofiber procedure
    • Prepare nanofibers according to previously used procedure, with doubled concentration (0.5mM Au in final solution) making 100:1 and 60:1 ratios of gold:myoglobin
    • Make an additional solution of nanofibers with no scaffold for comparison
  • Autoclave scaffolds in PBS
    • Pictures before and after

Sample Preparation

  • Au stock solution:
    • 0.011g x (1 mol/393.833g) x 0.010L = 2.793mM
  • Myoglobin stock solution:
    • 0.011g x (1 mol/17699g) x 0.010L = 0.0621mM
  • Volumes of Au, protein, and water for each test tube (Myoglobin ratios from Febrary 11):
    • Final [Au]=0.5mM, 5mL total volume
