Question

1. NADH standard samples are prepared using serial (step-wise) dilutions. Calculate the concentrations of initial NADH standard stocks (column 2) required to produce the corresponding final concentrations (column 1) if diluting 10 ul of the initial NADH stocks (column 2) into a final assay volume of 1.21 mL. 2. If you were starting with a 50 mm NADH solution, calculate the volumes of NADH (column 3) and H,0 (column 4) needed to produce 100 ul of NADH standard stocks of varying concentration (column 2). Volume of H,0 to add Concentration of initial 1001 Volume of 50 mM NADH ul stock (mm) to add (ul) (ul) Final NADH concentration (uM) 200 150 100 | 24.2 24.2 75 50 25
