Tasks

  • Make a Dialysis of lysozyme in HPLC
    • Prepare 10 mL 0.5 g/L Lysozyme (added 0.0050 g to 10 mL volumetric flask filling the rest with HPLC)
    • Prepare 2 mL 50 mM CaCl2
    • Prepare 2 mL 500 μM CaCl2
    • Prepare 2 mL 50 mM NaCl
    • Prepare 1 mL 0.25 mM HCl using your 2.5 mM stored stock
    • Cut a piece of 3500 MWCO flat dialysis tubing, wet it, and insert it in the 5-well dialysis chamber
    • Clamp the dialysis chamber shut
    • Fill one side of each well with 1 mL of your 0.5 g/L Lysozyme solution
      • Transfer 1 mL to a plastic test tube using a pippetter, then
      • Fill each well with with a glass Pasteur pipette
      • You may need to tip the chamber on an angle to reduce water surface tension
    • Fill the other side of the well with one of the following solutions
      • HPLC water, 0.25 mM HCl, 50 mM CaCl2, 500 μM CaCl2, or 50 mM NaCl
      • Each well has a different solution, which will be tested tomorrow
    • Insert top screws to prevent leaking/evaporation.
  • Make Ca2+ calibration curve
    • Prepare 25 mL 50 mM CaCl2 using HPLC water (0.13876 g CaCl2 in 10 mL volumetric flask with HPLC)
    • Using serial dilutions, prepare 25 mL each of 5 mM, 500 μM, 50 μM, & 5 μM CaCl2
    • Measure Ca2+ using ISE
    • Try measuring 50 μM and 50 mM of other salts to check for interferences (Mg2+ should, Na+ should not)
    • Measure HPLC water, DI water, tap water, and your lysozyme stock solution.
  • Make Cl- calibration curve
    • Prepare 25 mL 50 mM NaCl using HPLC water (0.0730 g in 10 mL volumetric flask with HPLC)
    • Using serial dilutions, prepare 25 mL each of 5 mM, 500 μM, 50 μM, & 5 μM NaCl
    • Measure Cl- using ISE
    • Measure 50 μM and 50 mM of other salts to check for interferences & ion-pairing
    • Measure HPLC water, DI water, tap water, and your lysozyme stock solution.
