If you are making a 1:10 dilution of a 10mg/ml BSA solution using 90ul of water as diluent, how much 10mg/ml of BSA would you add? What would be your final concentration of BSA? If you assayed both these solutions using the Bradford assay which one would have a higher O.D.?
I suppose ul means microliter (
).
Let's analyze what a dilution is, when you say it is 1:10 diluted,
it means that 1 part out of ten parts is the original sample, so to
make a 1:10 dilution you have to add 9 part of water and 1 part of
sample. We already have the water which is 90ul, then we have to
add 10ul of sample to achieve the given 1:10 dilution.
how much 10mg/ml of BSA would you add? 10ul of such original sample
What would be your final concentration of BSA? For this we have to transform the units.

We have 0.01mg BSA per 100 ul that we prepared, that is (0.01mgBSA)/(100ul) = 0.00001mgBSA/ul
If you assayed both these solutions using the Bradford assay which one would have a higher O.D.?
The optical density value won't vary with the concentration of the same compound, both dilutions will use the same o.d. value

Lab 5: Additional Dilution Problems You have a stock solution that contains 24 mg/ml of protein. You want to make a set of standards with the following concentrations: 12 mg/ml, 6 mg/ml, 3 mg/ml and 1.5 mg/ml You need a minimum of 500 ul of each standard after all dilutions are completed. Using the technique of serial dilution, explain how you would make your standards by filling in the chart below. Std 4 Std 1 12 Std 2 6 Std...
1. You want to prepare a 1:50 dilution of your protein extract in a total volume of 1000 uL. You will need ___ uL of protein extract and ___ uL of water. 2. You are provided with a solution of BSA that is 100 ug/mL and make a 10-2 dilution? What is the resulting concentration of the DILUTED BSA? 3. Which of the following statements about enzymes is true? Select one: a. Enzymes increase the rate of a chemical reaction...
Suppose you were to make your own standards (via serial dilution) using 6 tubes. You start with tube #1- you have 450 uL of assay buffer and add 50 uL of estradiol stock solution. Then you take out 100 uL from tube # 1 and add it to 300 uL assay buffer in tube #2, this is repeated for tubes #3-6 (for tube #3 remove 100 uL from tube #2, etc.). In tube #1 you end up with a final...
How would you prepare a 1/100 dilution (of a concentrated stock solution) in a final vol of 100 ml? 2.5 L? 87 ml? (ie how much diluent and how much of your concentrated stock)?
1. You have a bacterial cell culture with a concentration of 1x109 cells/ml. You need to dilute the cells to a concentration of 1x103. What is the correct ratio for this dilution? 2. You add 0.1 ml of a yeast culture to a test tube that contains 9.9 ml of buffer solution. What is the dilution factor of this mixture? 3. In a 1000 µl total dilution volume, the volume of cell culture used is 800 µl. What is the...
Weight Using SDS-PAGE Quantification of Total Protein Using Bradford Protein Assay Pre- Lab Your pre-lab assignment is to plan how you will prepare your BSA standard solutions for the calibration curve. A 2 mg/mL BSA stock solution will be available. You can simply dilute with deionized water. You will need to make 25 microliters of each of the following concentrations. For the first concentration, you will need to make 160 microliters so that the BSA volume is large enough that...

please show work
so: 1 ml stock 10 ml final -0.5 mL of stock -5 ml final volume While I have used 1:10 as a standard the same rules apply for all dilution factors. Try these problems: x 0.5 X0.5 1. You need to make a 1:25 dilution factor. If you final volume is 25 mL this means that you need_ _mL of stock and mL of solvent to make your final volume of 25 mL. 2. If you needed...
