In order to measure riboflavin in a breakfast cereal, a 5.00-gram sample of the cereal was extracted with acetic acid and filtered. The extract was transferred to a 50.0 mL volumetric flask and diluted to the mark. The sample was transferred to a cuvette and the fluorescence was measured. The instrument read 59 units (Fluorescence units –an arbitrary scale). 24.00 mL of the cereal extract was sample was mixed with 1.0 mL of a riboflavin standard that was 0.500 ug/mL. The fluorescence of this mixture was measured and read 94 fluorescence units. Calculate the concentration of riboflavin per gram of cereal (use µg/gram of cereal).
The equation of your standard curve of absorbance versus concentration (mM) is y = 1.245x + 0.0012. You put a solution of unknown concentration into the Spec20 and get an absorbance value of 0.227, which lies within the standards used to make the standard curve. What is the concentration of the unknown solution in mM?
The “SPF number” of a sunscreen increases as the sunscreen absorbs more light and, therefore, provides more protection:7 SPF 5 1/T, where T is transmittance of UV-B radiation (Figure 18-7) through a uniform layer of sunscreen at a concentration of 2 mg/cm2. What are the transmittance and absorbance when SPF 5 2, 10, and 20? What fraction of UV-B radiation is absorbed by each sunscreen?
