Question
Pretend you are performing an experiment with a pigmented substance similar to BPB. As the concentration increases, the color of the liquid in the container intensifies.
a. How can you use a standard curve to compare the color of your samples?
b. What is going the standard curve look like? What are you going to have on your X and Y axes?
c. Is your standard curve always be the same if you use the same pigment and the same concentration?

- You perform a Bradford assay. You obtain the absorbance values listed below from the BSA samples; your protein sample yields an absorbance of 1.3; what is the protein concentration of your sample? How did you determine that? BSA (ug/ml) Absorbance @ 595 nm. 25 0.15 50 0.30 75 0.45 100 0.60 150 0.90 200 1.25arrow_forwardIn this problem, you will design a filter system for a flow cytometer. The four fluorescent dyes are FITC,PE, PE-TR,and PE-Cy5. Their emisison spectra are provided below. Detectors are arranged as shown in thefigure below. The FITC signal is detected from Filter 1, the PE signal from Filter 2, the PE-TR signal fromFilter 3 and the PE-Cy 5 signal from Filter 4. Part 4.1Provide a rationale for the order in which the filters are arranged with respect to the unfiltered signal. Part 4.2You are given 9 candidates from which you have to choose 4 for the filters in the diagram above. Choose4 and justify your selection.# Filter type WavelengthA Long pass 650 nmB Short pass 530 nmC Long pass 490 nmD Band pass 550-590 nmE Long pass 560 nmF Short pass 640 nmG Long pass 620 nmH Band pass 620-640 nmI Short pass 590 nmarrow_forwardYou assay 0.5 ml of 1/2000 diluted egg white for protein, as described in the practical schedule, and the spectrophotometer reading at 595 nm is 0.6. Using the attached calibration curve(click to enlarge), calculate the concentration of protein in undiluted egg white. Give your answer in mg/ml.arrow_forward
- You are asked to design an assay to measure the concentration of WonderDrug in various different pharmaceutical preparations using either its UV-visible absorption or its fluorescence emission. Explain when a UV-visible absorption based assay would be the more appropriate and when a fluorescence based assay would be more appropriate.arrow_forwardIf you are using sensitivity and specificity to evaluate how well a dichotomous test (like a field sobriety test or home pregnancy test) is working, ideally what do you hope to see? Choose the correct answer and explaing why: a) Low specificity and low sensitivity. b) High specificity and high sensitivity. c) Low specificity and high sensitivity. d)_High specificity and low sensitivity.arrow_forwardIf you were given the task of determining the approximate % solute of potato cells. You decide to set up a series of 10 cups ranging from dH2O to 1% sucrose solution. You intend to drop a potato stick in each cup. a. What data would I need to collect for each potato stick? b. Why would I need to look for the solutions that have no effect on the potato stick?arrow_forward

Next draw a vertical line that starts at the point where the horizontal line intersected the curve and ends at the x-axis. The point where this vertical line intersects the x-axis corresponds to the concentration of flavin in your unknown sample. What was the letter on the tube with your unknown sample? What is the concentration of the flavin in your unknownarrow_forward
