The concentration of a purified monoclonal antibody was measured using UV280 nm. The sample was diluted (200 μL of purified antibody in 800 μL buffer) prior to analysis using a spectrophotometer. Calculate the concentration of antibody in the purified fraction if the Abs=0.95 of the diluted antibody. The molar absorptivity is known to be 191,411.6 M-1cm-1 and the molecular weight is 150 kDa. The pathlength for the cuvette is 1 cm.

Step 1

Monoclonal antibodies are laboratory-produced molecules that are engineered to mimic the immune system's ability to fight off harmful pathogens. They are made from identical immune cells that are all clones of a unique parent cell, hence the name "monoclonal." These antibodies can be designed to target specific proteins or cells, making them useful for treating a variety of diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases.
