Autoclaving PVA + Au:BSA Solutions

  • Using the 8 10mL test tubes created on Tuesday, add various substances and put all tubes into the autoclave.
    • Tube 1: 0.6g PVA 89-98K + 10mL water
      • add 1mL Gold + 1mL BSA
    • Tube 2: 0.6g PVA 130K + 10mL water
      • add 1mL Gold + 1mL BSA
    • Tube 3: 0.25mM Gold + 0.00147mM BSA + water
      • add 0.6g 89-98K PVA
    • Tube 4: 0.25mM Gold + 0.00278mM BSA + water
      • add 0.6g 89-98K PVA
    • Tube 5: 0.25mM Gold + 0.00147mM BSA + water
      • add nothing
    • Tube 6: 0.25mM Gold + 0.00278mM BSA + water
      • add nothing
    • Tube 7: nothing
      • add 1mL Gold + 1mL BSA + 8mL water
    • Tube 8: nothing
      • add 1mL Gold + 1mL BSA + 8mL water
  • All solutions put into the autoclave at 12:05PM

BSA and HAuCl4 Stock Solutions

  • Au solution of HAuCl4:3H2O
    • MW = 393.83 g/mol
    • in 10mL 2.5mM solution, I need 9.096mg HAuCl4:3H2O
      • actual amount used: 10.21mg
      • therefore, I need 12.07mL H2O
  • BSA solution
    • MW = 66776g
    • in 20mL 15μM solution, I need 20.032mg BSA
      • actual amount used: 21.5mg BSA
      • therefore, I need 21.47mL of H2O

  • Ratio 2: 90 Au:BSA (2 dishes of this ratio)
    • fixed: .25mM Au
    • new BSA: 0.00278mM
    • solution: 2mL 2.5mM Au + 3.70mL 15μM BSA + 14.30mL H2O
  • Ratio 3: 120 Au:BSA
    • fixed: .25mM Au
    • new BSA: 0.00208mM
    • solution: 2mL 2.5mM Au + 2.78mL 15μM BSA + 15.22mL H2O
  • Ratio 4: 150 Au:BSA
    • fixed: .25mM Au
    • new BSA: 0.00167mM
    • solution: 2mL 2.5mM Au + 2.22mL 15μM BSA + 15.78mL H2O
  • All 5 solutions put into the 80°C oven at 1:22PM and taken out at 5:20PM.
  • Added 0.6g 89-98K PVA to each solution; autoclaved for an hour.
