Objectives

  1. Re-prepare BSA-AuNP solutions that were originally prepared on 11/19/2013 because these solutions did not form fibers
  2. Analyze invertase-AuNP solutions prepared on 11/19/2013 using UV/vis and AA spectroscopy.


UV/vis spectroscopy

  • The general protocol for analyzing Au-NP solutions via UV/vis spectroscopy described on [[ was followed.

Notes

  • All BSA solutions prepared 11/19/2013 did not form fibers. This did not coincide with all other lab groups data. It is suspected that the BSA stock solution was prepared inaccurately. New nano-particles will be prepared.
