- After performing the manual Albumin assay, you get the absorbance value of 0.205 for a 4.5 g/dL albumin standard and 0.114 for control A. What is the calculated value of the control? (just write a number with one decimal, the units will be mg/dL)A student performed an invertase activity assay on samples from a purification. All reactions occurred in a reaction volume of 100 µL and lasted 3.1 minutes. For each reaction, 5.00 µL enzyme was mixed with 50.0 mM sucrose in 10.0 mM acetate pH 4.8. Then 400 µL of DNS was added, the samples were heated to 90 °C for 5 minutes, and 500 µL of 50.0 mM acetate pH 4.8 was added before loading a 96 well plate in triplicate. Samples were measured at 540 nm using a path length of 0.680 cm. The fraction with the highest activity had A540 of 0.904. The standard of 14.00 mM hydrolyzed sucrose had A540 of 1.047 (the concentration given is of the 100 µL sample). The no-enzyme control had A540 of 0.174. Calculate the activity of the fraction (in nmol min-1).You are performing an enzyme reaction that works the same way as your wheat germ acid phosphatase (WGAP) assay. First, you dissolve 10.0 umol of product into 1.00 ml of buffer, and measure an absorbance of 0.500. Your cuvette has a 1.00 cm pathlength. Next, you perform the enzyme assay. Your enzyme solution has a concentration of 20.0 ug/ml. 1) Mix 0.250 ml substrate buffer with 0.250 ml enzyme 2) Incubate 20.0 min 3) Stop the assay with 0.500 ml NaOH 4) Read an absorbance of 0.200 *The units required for each answer in this problem are given. Answers to all three parts should be rounded to a maximum of three decimal places. Do not enter any letters. What is the extinction coefficient (ml/umol/cm) of the product?

(I gave the image since I don't know if that info is needed to solve this question.)It also gives a follow-up, if you can help here too: You work in a lab as a summer student. One of your tasks is to make sure that there is enough cell culture medium containing antibiotics to grow bacteria. One day you realize that there is only 5 ml of 10% Antibiotic stock solution in the freezer. You decide to use it all to prepare the working culture medium with 0.01% antibiotic. In the lab there is plenty of growth medium without antibiotics. (Note: dilution in medium is like dilution in water). You remember the equation to make dilutions of stock solutions. You usually use this formula to calculate the required volume of a stock solution, but you realize it can apply here as well, even though the unknown is the final volume. So, you make that dilution. Given that each bacterial…) If you counted 500 CFU’s in the petri dish for number 6 and 5000 CFU’s in petri dish for number 7, what would be the most justifiable explanation for this? 19) If the original sample’s concentration was 12 bacterial cells, what do you expect the count to be?You are given as following : 20 µl pure LDH on ice, 2.0ml of 6mM NAD+, 2.0ml of 150mM lactate, and 0.14M CAPS buffer.
