Objective

• Stock solutions of BSA and gold were prepared
• BSA wrapped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized using the stock solutions

Description

Stock Solutions: HAuCl4

• 50mL solution :
• 2.7mM
• 0.0458789 grams of HAuCl4

BSA

• 50mL solutions:
• 1.57µM
• 0.00495 grams of BSA

Solutions:

• 33µL of HAuCl4
• 1000µL of BSA
• 8967µL of dH20

Procedure:

• BSA/AuNP Preparation of 60:1
• Placed in oven for four hours

Data

• no AuNPs were synthesized
• too dilute

Notes

• The concentrations that will be used for the actual experiments have not been determined yet
