Fluorescence
Purpose
Use fluorescence to examine the rate at which Myoglobin templated gold nanoparticles unfold at pH6
Procedure
- Sample was made Myoglobin: 0.25mM Au, 12.5uM Myoglobin, .001mM HCl 3mL total
- Au 2.26mM
- (0.25mM)(3.0mL)=(XmL)(2.26mM)
- XmL= .332mL= 332uL Au
- Myoglobin 160uM
- (12.5uM)(3.0mL)=(XmL)(160uM)
- X=0.234mL= 234uL Myoglobin
- HCl 0.001mM
- (3.0mL)(0.001mM)=(1.0mM)(XmL)
- XmL=0.003mL= 3uL HCl
- Water
- Volume of water= 3000uL- 332uL-234uL-3uL= 2431uL
- Absorbance measurements were taken and saved every 3 minutes for 3 hours
- The instrument was set at 80 degrees Celsius
- The scan range parameters were start at 310nm and ending at 540nm
- 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.
