Using this data, plot an Excel graph showing absorbance (y-axis) vs ml albumin (x-axis). Find the
correlation coefficient (r). R2 > 0.99 = excellent data; r2 0.98-0.95 good data r2 0.94 -0.90 =
fair data. How would you describe this data?-
To find the relative sensitivity, for each of tubes 2-6 (neglect blank), perform the following
operation absorbance (Lowry)/Absorbance (Biuret x 0.5 gram albumin (Biuret)/0.05 gram
(Lowry) x 200 ml (Lowry)/100 mL (Biuret). This implifies to Relative sensitivity = 20 dilution
factor x absorbance (Lowry)/Absorbance (Biuret). Report your relative sensitivity as an average
of all 5 values.

- * Question Completion Status: QUESTION 6 Most analytical machines used in science can either measure absorbance of light, like the spectrophotometers used in BioZ 151 and 152 labs, or can measure change in electrical conductance. In order to convert things like absorbance values into concentration data, a linear regression is used. In order to determine nitrite concentration in water samples, nitrite is reacted with several chemicals to produce a purple color. The absorbance of the solution is measured from known amounts of nitrite to produce a standard curve to analyze samples. Use the data in the provided table, or from the linked spreadsheet to make a graph and perform a linear regression using treadline. mg/L NO, Absorbance 0.1 0.183 0.3 0.5 0.7 0.542 0.914 1.298 1.61 In order for this to work, samples must be diluted prior to measurement standard curve. If a sample underwent a 0.02 dilution, and produce an absorbance value of 0.903, what is the resultant concentration of NO2 in mg…arrow_forwardThe concentration of methylene blue in the sample is estimated through (select the correct) options: refractive index measurement (refractometry). turbidity measurement (turbidimetry). absorbance measurement (spectrophotometry). titration with 2% HCl solution.arrow_forwardA student weighed out 0.150 g of protein powder and dissolved it in 100 mL of water (Solution 1). The student then diluted this solution by transferring 1 mL into a 25 mL flask and diluting with water (Solution 2). Finally, 1 mL of that solution was transferred to a test tube and combined with 4 mL Bradford reagent. The absorbance of the solution in the test tube was 0.187. Assuming that the best fit linear line of the standard curve was y = 0.04144 x + 0.01521 (μ g mL), calculate the percent protein by mass in the original protein powder.arrow_forward
