Question
10. How many ul of 20ng/ul stock of DNA do you need to get 60ng of DNA
11. How many ul of a 20ug/ml stock of DNA so you need to get 40ng of DNA
12. Prepare 100 ml of a 10mM tris solution using 1M of tris (include the amount of water in your answer)
13. Prepare 10ml of a 50mM tris solution using 1M of tris (include the amount of water in your answer)
14. Prepare 100ml of a solution that is both 25mM tris and 150mM NaCl using 1M tris stock and 50M NaCl stock
15. Prepare 500 ml of a solution that is 50mM tris, 150mM NaCl, and 1mM EDTA using the following stock: 1M tris, 5M NaCl, 0.5 EDTA
Explanation / Answer
Please find the answers below:
Answer 10: According to the information, the stock DNA is 20ng/ul. In order to make 60 ng of DNA, a total of 60/20 = 3 ul of this stock is required.
Answer 11: The calculation can be made according to the formula below:
20 * 103 ul = 40 * 10-3 * Volume required
Thus, volume required = (20 * 103) / 40 *10-3 or 5*105 ul
Answer 12: To prepare 100 ml of a 10mM tris solution using 1M of tris, following formula will be used:
100 * 10-3 * 100 = 1 * Volume of water
Volume of water required = 10-3 ml. This means that a total of 0.001 ml of this stock solution must be diluted with water to make up 100 ml of solution. Thus, the volume of water required is 100- 0.001 or 99.999 ml.
Answer 13: To prepare 10ml of a 50mM tris solution using 1M of tris, following formula will be used:
10 * 50 * 10-3 = 1 * volume required
Volume required = 0.5 ml.
Thus, 0.5 ml of the stock solution must be mixed with 9.5 ml of water to get desired dilution.
