Experiment 2 Quantification of Proteins in Solution by Spectrophotometer Lab bench# 1 Introduction: Absorption spectroscopy is a common method for finding the concentration of proteins or protein complexes in a solution. Proteins absorb light at specific wavelengths and can be defined by the equation A = log (Io/I). This equation states that an absorbance at a specific wavelength‚ A is equal to the log of the ratio of incident light intensity (Io)‚ to transmitted light intensity (I). A

Pulmonary tuberculosis accounts for the majority of the TB cases in the United States (Todar). Bovine tuberculosis is another infectious form of TB caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium bovis (Tortora‚ Funke‚ and Case 690). M. bovis is the etiologic agent of TB in cows and rarely in humans. Both cows and humans can serve as reservoirs. Humans can

Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that replaces missing bone in order to repair bone fractures that are extremely complex‚ pose a significant health risk to the patient‚ or fail to heal properly.Bone generally has the ability to regenerate completely but requires a very small fracture space or some sort of scaffold to do so. Bone grafts may be autologous harvested from the patient’s own body‚ often from the allograft or synthetic with similar mechanical properties to bone. Most bone grafts
