ObjectiveToday's objective is to perform a UV-Vis spectroscopy and a fluorescence spectroscopy on the three solutions we have been preparing last 2 weeks. The main purpose of these measures is to quantify the amount of dye and Gold NPs in each solution. The UV-Vis spectroscopy is going to allow us to quantify Gold NPs in each solution, using the fact that Gold NPs absorb at 550nm. To do so, we are going to make a spectrum of the solution by using a spectrophotometer (UV-1800 Shimadzu) in the wavelength range of 200-800nm. The fluorescence spectroscopy is going to allow us to quantify the amount of tagged dye in each solution. We are going to use the fact that our dye absorbs at 602nm and emits at 672nm. Protocol
