Could the concentration of the hexapeptide be determined by the absorbance at 280nm using the Beer-Lambert law?
O Yes, it has the correct amino acids
Yes all proteins absorb light at 280nm
O Only at pH 13
Only at very, high concentrations
No, this hexapeptide doesn't contain any light absorbent amino acids
