Pre lab preparations:

1. Stock antigen = 25~g/500~1=0.05 ug/ul =50 ug/mL. Calculate the antigen volume that need to
run all the protocol and dilute the stock to become a working concentration at 1 ug/mL.
2. Stock of primary antibody = 25~g/500~1=0.05 ~g/1l1 =50 ug/mL. Calculate the volume that need
to run all the protocol and dilute the stock to become a working concentration at 1 ug/mL.
3. Stock of secondary antibody = 25~g/500~1=0.05 ~g/~l =50 ug/mL. Calculate the volume needed
to run all the protocol and dilute the stock to become a working concentration at 1 ug/mL.
4. Prepare 0.18M H2S04 from 98.097g/mol of H2S04.
