*Note: 1μg/mL was too small of a volume to prepare from the 10mg/mL stock. Another stock solution of 20μg/μL was prepared(with buffer and ADA from the stock solution) and a dilution to 1μg/μL was performed from the 20μg/μL solution. | |||

==UV/vis Notes== | |||
*All three of the prepared graphs do not have to necessary shape of a Bradford assay, and on each graph, each of the concentrations have a different maximum absorption peak(most obvious in Figure 2.). This may be due to the fact that there is too small of a volume in the cuvettes. When a blank of water was placed in the cuvette with 1mL, there appeared to be extreme fluctuations. Another trial of the ADA bradford assay will be run tomorrow. Smaller cuvettes will be used. | |||
<br> | |||
==AA Standard Preparations== | |||
*Because AA is destructive 10mL of each sample will be prepared. | |||
* 5 standard solutions (25μg/mL, 20μg/mL, 15μg/mL, 10μg/mL, 5μg/mL) will be prepared. | |||
<br> | |||
General Protocol: | |||
# Add the necessary volume of AA/ICPMS 1000 (±) 10 μL/mL, 10% HCl gold solution to a clean 10mL volumetric flask. | |||
# Fill the volumetric flask to the line with deionized H<sub>2</sub>O. Cap and shake the volumetric flask for ~2min. | |||
# Pour the gold solution into a falcon tube for storage. Parafilm the cap of the falcon tube to ensure no H<sub>2</sub>O evaporates. | |||
