Upon mixing CFP-a-p34 with GFP-a-p34 and 3-p34, the fluorescence of CFP drops from 100,000 to 96,000. When CFP-a-p34 is mixed with GFP-B-p34 in the presence of 0.5M GdnHCl the fluorescence of CFP drops from 100,000 to 63,900. If the Förster radius for the donor/acceptor pair is 50Å, how far apart are the donor and acceptor in each case?

Fe2+ is used as a catalyst for the oxidation of luminal by H,02. The resulting chemiluminescence increases linearly with Fe2* concentration. Exactly 1.0 mL of water was added to a 5.0-mL sample of an unknown Fe2* solution, followed by 2.0 mL of H20, and 1.0 mL of luminol. The chemiluminescence intensity was found to be 16.1. When 1.0 mL of 4.75 x 10 SM Fe2+ solution was added to another 5.0-mL of the unknown Fe2+ solution, followed by 2.0 mL of H,0, and 1.0 mL of luminol, the chemiluminescence intensity was 39.6.

The biuret reaction is a general method for the determination of proteins or peptides. This method is based on the reaction of the Cu2+ with four NH groups of the peptide bonds, forming a violet complex with an absorption maximum at 540 nm. The intensity of the color is proportional to the number of peptide bonds present, and therefore to the amount of protein. This reaction is specific, the dipeptides and amino acids give a negative reaction, and few substances interfere. A quantity of 19.89 g of fish meat is extracted with 100 mL of glacial acetic acid. Subsequently, 3 mL of the previous solution with 3 mL of the biuret reagent to generate the reaction, after 30 minutes. To reduce errors due to other interfering substances and residual turbidity, the corrected absorbance method Ac is applied to 500 nm and 570 nm. In a study, a standard sample analyzed by the Kjeldahl method (total Nitrogen analysis) is obtained, resulting in 0.43% N (w / v), (Protein content [%] =% N x 6.38). 3 mL of…

5. The table shows intensities and lifetime data for luminescence of a ruthenium complex for a range of oxygen concentrations.

Why does the luminescence intensity decrease as the oxygen concentration increases? The luminescence intensity decreases as the oxygen concentration increases because the oxygen is acting as a quencher so when the oxygen is present the luminescence gets excited and then that energy is transferred and accepted by охудen. b.

The efficiency n of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is given by: R + R° A solution is prepared containing linear molecules, each consisting of an anthracene donor and a tryptophyl peptide acceptor separated by n L-prolyl linker units. The solution absorbs 0.230 mJ of laser radiation with a wavelength of 273 nm and emits 1.35 ×10² mJ of fluorescence at a wavelength of 293 nm. Given that R. = 2.20 nm, ø= 0.36 for anthracene, and the approximate length of one linker unit is 0.34 nm, determine n.
