    Contamination by phenol can significantly contribute to overestimation of DNA concentration. Absorption at 230 nm can be caused by contamination by phenolate ion, thiocyanates, and other organic compounds. For a pure RNA sample, the A 230:260:280 should be around 1:2:1, and for a pure DNA sample, the A 230:260:280 should be around 1:1.8:1. [9]

    The infrared absorption spectrum of NASA laboratory sulfur dioxide ice is compared with the infrared absorption spectra of ices on Jupiter's moon, Io credit NASA, Bernard Schmitt, and UKIRT. Absorption spectroscopy is useful in chemical analysis [5] because of its specificity and its quantitative nature. The specificity of absorption spectra ...

  4. Intrinsic DNA fluorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_DNA_fluorescence

    Intrinsic DNA fluorescence is the fluorescence emitted directly by DNA when it absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It contrasts to that stemming from fluorescent labels that are either simply bound to DNA or covalently attached to it, [1] [2] widely used in biological applications; such labels may be chemically modified, not naturally occurring, nucleobases.

    An example of a UV-Vis readout. UV-Vis can be used to monitor structural changes in DNA. [8]UV-Vis spectroscopy is routinely used in analytical chemistry for the quantitative determination of diverse analytes or sample, such as transition metal ions, highly conjugated organic compounds, and biological macromolecules.

  6. Chromophore - Wikipedia

    The color that is seen by our eyes is that of the light not absorbed by the reflecting object within a certain wavelength spectrum of visible light. The chromophore indicates a region in the molecule where the energy difference between two separate molecular orbitals falls within the range of the visible spectrum (or in informal contexts, the ...

    Thus, different components of the mixture move at different speed. Different components of a mixture can therefore be identified by their respective R ƒ values, which is the ratio between the migration distance of the substance and the migration distance of the solvent front during chromatography. In combination with the instrumental methods ...

  8. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_X-ray_absorption...

    Every element has a set of unique absorption edges corresponding to different binding energies of its electrons, giving XAS element selectivity. XAS spectra are most often collected at synchrotrons because the high intensity of synchrotron X-ray sources allows the concentration of the absorbing element to reach as low as a few parts per million ...

    The process of in-line probing is often used to determine changes in structure due to ligand binding. Binding of a ligand can result in different cleavage patterns. The process of in-line probing involves incubation of structural or functional RNAs over a long period of time. This period can be several days, but varies in each experiment.
