Fluorescence

Purpose

Use fluorescence to examine the rate at which myoglobin unfolds at pH5

Procedure

  1. Sample was made Myoglobin: 0.25mM Au, 12.5uM Myoglobin, 0.1mM HCl 3mL total
    1. Au 4.57mM
      1. (0.25mM)(3.0mL)=(XmL)(4.57mM)
      2. XmL= .164mL= 164uL Au
    2. Myoglobin 184uM
      1. (12.5uM)(3.0mL)=(XmL)(184uM)
      2. X=0.315mL= 315uL Myoglobin
    3. HCl 0.1mM
      1. (3.0mL)(0.01mM)=(1.0mM)(XmL)
      2. XmL=0.03mL= 30uL HCl
    4. Water
      1. Volume of water= 3000uL- 164uL-274uL-30uL= 2532uL
  2. Absorbance measurements were taken and saved every 5 minutes for 3 hours
  3. The instrument was set at 80 degrees Celsius
  4. The scan range parameters were start at 310nm and ending at 540nm
  5. The emission and exit slit were set at 10nm
