* | *Re-prepare BSA-AuNP solutions that were originally prepared on 11/19/2013 because these solutions did not form fibers | ||
*Analyze invertase-AuNP solutions prepared on 11/19/2013 using UV/vis and AA spectroscopy. | |||
==UV/vis spectroscopy== | |||
*The general protocol for analyzing Au-NP solutions via UV/vis spectroscopy described on 11/06/2013 was followed. | |||

'''General Protocol''' | |||
#Transfer 3mL of sample from test tubes into a 10mL falcon tube. | |||
#Centrifuge 3mL protein-AuNP solutions for 30 minutes at 4000rpm. Be sure that the centrifuge is balanced. | |||
#Prepare 5 standard Au solutions (10μg/mL, 20μg/mL, 30μg/mL, 40μg/mL, 50μg/mL) following protocol described on 09/10/2013. | |||
#Run samples on AA. | |||

*The strange shape of this spectra will be investigated. This may be related to the varying color of the solutions. The solutions are colored, then appear colorless, then are again colored (see images below) | |||

==Notes== | |||
*All BSA solutions prepared 11/19/2013 did not form fibers. This did not coincide with all other lab groups data. It is suspected that the BSA stock solution was prepared inaccurately. New nano-particles will be prepared. | |||

*In comparison to previously prepared fibers, these fibers are much smaller and less string-like in appearance. | |||
