Objective Use DSC to analyze AuNP-fibers Use Powder XRD to analyze AuNP-fibers Take FTIR Spectrum of AuNP-fibers. Protocol Samples of AuNP Fibers were obtained by centrifuging several 5 mL samples of fiber containing solutions at 4000 RPM for 5 minutes in 15 ml Falcon tubes and then pipetting off the supernatant fluid. Each DSC sample was setup to run through 3 temperature cycles with a ramp speed of 5 °C/min 1 sample of Lysozyme was ramped from 20 °C to 100 °C 1 sample of Lysozyme was ramped from 20 °C to 200 °C 1 sample of AuNP fibers was ramped from 20 °C to 100 °C 1 sample of AuNP fibers was ramped from 20 °C to 200 °C Results Figure 1: The figure above shows the FTIR Spectrum of Lysozyme. Figure 2: The figure above shows the FTIR Spectrum of the AuNP Fibers.
