Objective

  1. Make stock concentrations (one set for both groups)
  2. Take UV-Vis and Fluorescence spectra for each stock
  3. Make a calibration curve for both fluorescence and UV-Vis

Procedure

Preparation of stock solutions

0.0120g of R6G in 10mL needed to make the initial stock solution of 2500uM, this was used to prepare a secondary stock of 500uM, used to make the dilutions for 0.1, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.5. The initial stock of 2500uM was used to make a 2uM. But the 1.5 and 2 uM were not used for the calibration curve because the fluorescence was too high that it did not provide accurate data.

Concentration of stock solution (M) Amount of Stock used (mL)
0.1 0.001
0.5 0.005
0.75 0.0075
1 0.01
1.2 0.012

Fluorescence
