For a sample containing both protein and nucleic acid, the absorbance measured at a particular wavelength will be the sum of contributions from both types of molecule. Using the protein and nucleic acid concentrations you calculated in the previous step, calculate how much of the absorbance of the BSA and E.coli extract comes from protein and how much from nucleic acid, at each wavelength. HINT: the values in the table provided, are in essence, extinction coefficients with the units (mg/ml)-1cm-1.

A260 A280
protein 0.512 0.894
nucleic acid 22.1 10.8

There was a question previous to this, and I calculated that my protein concentration is 0.58 mg/ml and that my nucleic acid concentration is 0.04 mg/ml.

this is what I have come up with so far, but I am not sure if it is correct, and am not sure how to use it to determine how much absorbance is from protein or nucleic acid.

A280=Cprotein280protein280 + Cnucleic acid280*εnucleic acid280

and A260=Cprotein260protein260 + Cnucleic acid260nucleic acid260

A280=(0.58 mg/ml)*(0.894cm-1M-1) + (0.04 mg/ml)*(10.8cm-1M-1)

A280=0.51852+0.432

A280=0.95052

and A260=(0.58mg/ml)(0.512 cm-1M-1) + (0.04 mg/ml)*(22.1 cm-1M-1)

A260=0.29696+0.884

A260=1.18

In photography, unexposed silver bromide is removed from film by soaking the film in a solution of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3. Silver ion forms a soluble complex with thiosulfate ion, S2O32-, that has the formula Ag(S2O3)23-, and formation of the complex causes the AgBr in the film to dissolve. The Ag(S2O3)23- complex has Kform= 2.0 x 1013. How many grams of AgBr (Ksp= 5.4 x 10-13) will dissolve in 126 mL of 1.27 M Na2S2O3 solution?

A 50.0-mL solution containing Ni2+ and Zn2+ was treated with 25.0 mL of 0.0452 M EDTA to bind all the metal. The excess unreated EDTA required 12.4 mL of 0.0123 M Mg2+ for complete reaction. An excess of the reagent 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol was then added to displace the EDTA from zinc. Another 29.2 mL of Mg2+ was required for reaction with the liberated EDTA. Calculate the molarity of Ni2+ and Zn2+ in the original solution

suppose 1.00 mol of ice at -30.0c is heated at ... Question Suppose 1.00 mol of ice at -30.0C is heated at atmospheric pressure until it is converted to steam at 140.C. Calculated Q, W, ΔH, and ΔU for this process. For ice, water, and steam, Cpm = 38.0, 75.0, and 36.0 J/mol K, respectively, and can be taken to be approximately independent of temperature. ΔHfus for ice is 6.007 kJ mol , and ΔHvap for water is 40.66 kJ mol . Use the ideal gas law for steam, and assume that the volume of ice or water is negligible relative to that of 1 mol of steam.

Suppose that 200.0mL of a 0.1220 M HCL solution was added to a full antacid tabet containing CaCO3. The HCl fully reacted with the CO3^2- and the excess HCL was then back titrated with a 0.1050 M NaOH solution.
