This week I focused on learning more about the NanoSpectralyzer. The NanoSpectralyzer is used to study the selectivity of single-stranded DNA for different single-walled carbon nanotube structures by quenching of the near-infrared fluorescence of DNA suspended nanotubes in a sodium chloride aqueous solution.
After about 5 mins of running time, the NanoSpectralyzer produces a set amount of data. The schematic representation below shows the absorption spectra of sorted Single Stranded DNA wrapped SWCNTs. The absorption peaks also show various species in a mixture along with their positions.
Today in my lab we focused on formulation absorption formulas . I was wondering maybe we can use your data and come up with a similar absorption formula. Its kool that the absorption is directly correlated to the the type of species
