Preparation of Gold and Bovine Serum Albumin Stock Solutions

  • Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) was prepared by dissolving .0249 g of white crystalline powder of BSA into .025 L of water to obtain 15 μM of BSA.
  • Gold (Au) stock solution was made by dissolving .085 g of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate (HAuCl4) in .025 L of water to obtain 10 mM HAuCl4.
  • The amount of .085 g was acquired from the following calculation:

.025 L of water × (10×10-3 mM of HAuCl4 ÷ 1L)= .00025 mM of HAuCl4

.00025 mM of HAuCl4 × 339. 79 g (formula weight of HAuCl4)= .085 g of HAuCl4
