Finally, you want to make completely certain that you purified the correct protein and not some other protein (like biochemisnotfunase). To confirm the identity of your protein, you run a Western blot. When doing a Western, one typically needs a solution of phosphate-buffered saline, which is comprised of 10 mM phosphate buffer(pH 8.0) and 0.9% (w/v) NaCl. Describe how you would make 500 mL of this solution including the grams of sodium phosphate, monobasic and sodium phosphate, dibasic that you would need. Making the phosphate buffer is a little tricky. Be sure to use the correct ratio of monobasic and dibasic sodium phosphate to get the correct pH. The Henderson- Hasselbalch equation might come in handy here. Finally, the molecular weight of sodium phosphate, monobasic (NaH2PO4) is 119.98 g/mol and the molecular weight of sodium phosphate, dibasic (Na2HPO4) is 141.96 g/mol.
