Question
Before adding color reagent, sample tube #2 contained 0.35 mL of a 1:100 dilution of sample Y plus 0.65 mL of buffer A, and sample tube #3 contained 1 mL of a 1:1000 dilution of sample Z. Which of the following conclusions can you draw from the data in this assay?
Sample X is less concentrated than sample Y.
Sample Y is less concentrated than sample X.
Sample Z is less concentrated than sample Y.
Sample X and Y have approximately the same concentrations.
Sample Y and Z have approximately the same concentrations.
BSA (micrograms) A595 10 0.17 20 0.29 30 0.41 40 0.55 50 0.69Explanation / Answer
Tube 2 contains 0.35 ml of 1:100 diluted sample Y and Tube 3 contains 1 ml of 1:1000 dilution of sample Z
Therefore, the dilution of sample Z is 10 fold more in comparison with sample Y. Hence option 3-" Sample Z is less concentrated than sample Y" is the correct one.
