True
False
which of the following are common uses for a spectrophotometer in a biology lab? There may be more than one correct answer.
|
A. |
To quantify the activity of an enzyme |
|
|
B. |
To measure the concentration of protein in a cell sample. |
|
|
C. |
To quantify the density of cells in a population |
|
|
D. |
To quantify the amount of light-absorbing molecules in a sample. |
Light with a wavelength of 600 nm is used to read the absorbance of microbial cell cultures because cellular compounds (proteins, DNA, chromophores) absorb light at this wavelength and therefore do not interfere with the measurement.
True
False
