Objective An analysis of Nanoparticle synthesis (taking pictures and recording UV-Vis) gathered on both the 11th and 12th is presented here. The reactions were run on the 5th (100 uM amino acid) and the 11th (25, 50, 150, and 200 uM). Description Add experimental record here. Include what, how, and why... Data All data are shown with Alanine at 25uM to indicate what "no reaction" looks like. Alanine Arginine Asparagine Aspartic Acid Note: I think that aspartic acid is an outlier because it has an N-methyl protecting group instead of an N-acetyl protecting group. My hunch is that Aspartic acid won't make nanoparticles with different N-protection. Cysteine Glutamine Glutamic Acid Glycine Histidine Isoleucine Leucine Lysine Note: this data for Nα-acetyl lysine doesn't match with my previous data for lysine. I think that the primary amine on the side chain may also be protected. I need to check into this. Methionine Phenylalanine Proline Serine Threonine Tryptophan Tyrosine Valine Notes This area is for any observations or conclusions that you would like to note. Use categories like tags. Change the "Course" category to the one corresponding to your course. The "Miscellaneous" tag can be used for particular experiments, as instructed by your professor. Please be sure to change or delete this tag as required so that the categories remain well organized.
