- Took collagen out from freezer at 10:50
Calculating volumes for aliquoting
- concentration in vials: c= 5 mg/ml
- Thin coating = 5 ug/cm^2
- Area of coating: 2-5 cm^2 per network
- Mass of collagen: m= 5*5 = 25ug
- Volume of undiluted collagen: V = m/c = 0.025 mg/ 5 mg/ml = 0.005 ml = 5 ul, which is 1/1000 of a vial. It is completely unrealistic to handle such small volumes
- If I divide the vial volume into 25 x 200 ul it should give a reasonable amount of aliquots for thin coating
Diluting and dispensing
- Prepare sterile 17.5M acetic acid stock solution
- Dilute 1:1000 with sterile, distilled H2O
