Question 42
Transferrin is an iron-transport protein found in blood. Desferrioxamine B is an iron chelator used to treat patients suffering from iron overload. Both are
colourless in the absence of iron. The following data was obtained in aqueous solution using a 1.00 cm path length cell for both species when fully
complexed with iron:
Molar absorptivity M-1 cm-1
A (nm)
iron-transferrin
iron-desferrioxamine B
428
3540
2730
470
4170
2290
Calculate the absorbance at 470 nm of a solution that is 11.0 u M in iron-transferrin and 69.5 p M in iron-desferrioxamine B, assuming both are fully
complexed and that the cell path length is 1.00 cm.
