Objectives

  • If nanofibers formed in the tall scaffolds by the original nanofiber procedure (from 01/29/2014):
    • Take pictures against white background
    • Print taller scaffolds that span the length of liquid in the test tube
    • Increase the concentrations of gold and myoglobin, keeping the ratio the same
  • "Brute Force" method
    • For each nanofiber solution, there is a third of a tall scaffold
    • Place one tube worth of nanofibers on one of the thirds (repeat for other eight scaffold thirds)
    • Allow nanofibers to dry on the scaffolds overnight
    • Tomorrow: Take pictures, adhere scaffold thirds together, perform tests?

Nanofiber Results

100:1 Gold:Myoglobin Nanofibers alone<br.> <br.> 100:1 Gold:Myoglobin Nanofibers on PLA scaffolds<br.> <br.>

Note

Because the nanofibers turned out black instead of purple, we will double the concentration of both gold and myoglobin in the initial solution, keeping the 100 to 1 ratio the same.

Procedure

  • Make
