Objective

  1. Synthesize Pepsin-AuNPs for reactivity tests tomorrow
  2. Determine the Au:Protein ratio required for fiber formation for pepsin and HRP

Description

  1. Synthesis of HRP-AuNPs and Pepsin-AuNPs
    1. Into test tube that will contain a total of 5mL add
    2. Au solution such that the final concentration is 0.25mM
    3. Protein solution such that the final concentration reflects the following Au:Protein ratios
      1. 30
      2. 50
      3. 70
      4. 90
      5. 110
      6. 130
      7. 150
      8. 170
      9. 190
      10. 210
    4. Water up to 5mL

Data

Stock Solutions

  1. HRP
    1. 67.3mg in 100mL of water ---> 15.3 μM
  2. Pepsin
    1. 54.4mg in 100mL of water ---> 15.7 μM
  3. Gold
    1. Need 50mL of 2.5mM
    2. 49.7mg of HAuCl4·3H2O in 50mL water --> 2.52 mM

Results

The 10 tubes of Gold nano particles were made with the following volumes of the gold and protein stock solutions for each of the ratios. Water was added to the protein and Gold mixture until the final volume of each tube was 5mL.
