Fluorescence

Purpose

Use fluorescence to examine the rate at which Myoglobin templated gold nanoparticles unfold at pH6

Procedure

  1. Sample was made Myoglobin: 0.25mM Au, 12.5uM Myoglobin, .001mM HCl 3mL total
    1. Au 2.26mM
      1. (0.25mM)(3.0mL)=(XmL)(2.26mM)
      2. XmL= .332mL= 332uL Au
    2. Myoglobin 160uM
      1. (12.5uM)(3.0mL)=(XmL)(160uM)
      2. X=0.234mL= 234uL Myoglobin
    3. HCl 0.001mM
      1. (3.0mL)(0.001mM)=(1.0mM)(XmL)
      2. XmL=0.003mL= 3uL HCl
    4. Water
      1. Volume of water= 3000uL- 332uL-234uL-3uL= 2431uL
  2. Absorbance measurements were taken and saved every 3 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

Notes

The silver nitrate needed to be handled in a dark room, and the test tubes were completely wrapped in tin foil because it is a light sensitive solution.
