Absorbance recording

Pectolytic activity was also studied in batch reactors, following the reaction progress in thermostated quartz cuvettes. The reaction medium (3 cm ) was prepared with 1.5 g/L pectin in the standard buffer and 0.063 mg of enzyme. The absorbance of the reaction mixture against the substrate blank was continuously recorded at the spectrophotometer (Perkin Elmer Lambda 2, USA). Typical reaction time was 15 minutes, but initial reaction rates were estimated considering only the absorbances recorded during the first 200 seconds, range of totally linear response.

The reaction manifold describing the automated determination of ammonia is shown in Fig. 6.1. Two alternative modes of sampling are shown discrete and continuous. Discrete 5 ml samples contained in ashed (450 °C) glass vials are sampled from an autosampler (Hook and Tucker model A40-11 1.5 min sam-ple/wash). For high-resolution work in the estuary, the continuous sampling mode is preferred. The indophenol blue complex was measured at 630 nm with a colorimeter and the absorbance recorded on a chart recorder. 

The typical trace obtained with this instrument (Fig, 7) can be used to explain the operation of the system. The absorbance recorded by the spectrophotometer with both Scrubs turned in is shown as a function of time (the right-hand ordinate is converted to ppm ozone by using an extinction coefficient (22)), Scrub 1 provides a base line for the absorbance (no ozone). At 2 min. Scrub 1 is removed and the absorption rises to a level calculated to be 250-260 ppm of ozone, A 30 second lag occurs due to the volume of the system. The reaction vessel is added to the flow route at U min, and at 8 min Scrub 2 is removed. 

The reactions were done in the thermostated cell compartment of a Shimadzu QV-50 spectrophotometer. The wavelength was fixed at 300 nm. The sample and reference cells contained a solution of alcohol and dibutyltin dilaurate in dry DMF and were thermostated before use in the cell compartment. At zero time, a small quantity of solid MDI was rapidly dissolved in the sample cell and the absorbance recorded as a function of time. The end value of the absorbance (Aw) was determined after eight to 10 half-life periods. 

After PCA, die original variables (e.g. absorbances recorded at 28 wavelengths) are reduced to a number of significant principal components (e.g. three). PCA can be used as a form of variable reduction, reducing die large original dataset (recorded at...

The purity of crude peptide will be analayzed on a reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column. The elution of the peptide is followed by absorbance recorded at 215 nm. The purification on a 10 to 20 mg scale is performed on a larger, preparative column monitored at the less sensitive wavelength of 238 nm. 

Diltiazem hydrochloride is characterized by an absorption maximum at approximately 235 nm. This absorption can be used as the basis for the quantitative determination of diltiazem. The assay is performed by comparing the absorbance of the sample dissolved in 0.1 N HCI to a standard of a known concentration in 0.1 N HCI. The absorbance for the drug product is calculated by subtracting the absorbance of the excipients similarly prepared in 0.1 N HCI from the absorbance recorded for the drug product. 

Determine the wavelength of maximum absorbance. Record in the Results Summary.

The following technique for quantification of samples by UV spectroscopy is convenient, uses little sample, and decreases errors associated with unmatched or inadequately cleaned cuvets One milliliter of reference solution (buffer blank for proteins, EtOH for retinoids) is added to a standard 1-mL quartz cuvet. This is placed in the spectrometer and the instrument is zeroed. An appropriate amount of sample is then thoroughly mixed into this cuvet and the absorbance recorded. Examples addition of 100 fiL of a 10- iAf solution of CRABP will yield a final Ajgo of -0.02 addition of 10 pL of a 1-mM stock of typical retinoid will yield a final A280 of 0 4 The measurement should be repeated several times, preferably using several different dilutions...

Absorbance, A, which is the analytical signal in AAS, is defined as the logarithm of the ratio of the incident radiant flux, Oqj to the radiant flux, that is transmitted through the absorbing layer of the analyte atoms. Using the Beer-Lambert law [9] for expressing the transmitted radiant flux, the general relationship for the absorbance recorded by an AA spectrometer can be expressed as follows ...
